Sadly Over-hyped
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Two newborn babies, a girl and a boy are mixed up in the hospital. A Turkish and a German family experience this only when the Children are 16. Now the children swap families for two weeks to get to know the life of the other. From this plot i have expected nothing and was not disappointed . The film indulges in clichés, such as the non comic, speech impediment of the Turkish family, or the divorced over-cautious mother of the boy. The Turkish daughter is, of course, a Bitch and the German boy a Looser. Later, he is also shown how a real Turk behaves, what he naturally mimics exaggerated. In the end, it gets even to a bit of social criticism, as the German Mother don't recognize the Turkish Mother and believes it would be the cleaning lady. There is of course a happy ending. The boy gained self-confidence and the daughter is no longer a Bitch.
