About
Two babies are switched at birth. When the mistake is discovered 12 years later, it leads to complications in the lives of both families. One family is affluent, with dutiful and (apparently) contented children. The other family is poor, with rambunctious (even delinquent) children, often hungry, but with lots of laughter in the house.
A whimsical sense of chaos erupts when a clerical error swaps two infants, pitting a polished, wealthy household against a loud and hungry working-class family. This gentle comedy finds humor in the messy collision of two vastly different lifestyles.
