Overview
In Hamburg, an aged sorcerer is searching for a replacement. Freddie, who's about 12, finds the wizard's book of spells and knows enough to read a few lines to his friend Emma. She repeats the lines adding exasperation about Mickey, a boy who's often mean to her. The next morning, Mickey finds himself in Emma's body, and Emma finds herself in Mickey's body. The wizard tracks down the book, takes it back, and disappears, leaving Freddy with no way to reverse the spell, which becomes permanent in 54 hours. Freddy, Emma, and Mickey must work together to search out a solution, while making discoveries about sex roles, courage, friendship, and each other

00:03:19 You're just envious because you're a total loser.
00:07:21 Mrs. Lazybones?
00:11:44 Why without the book I'll never find a successor.
00:16:06 Well then, I'll be going...
00:19:29 I'd say, "Magia lunaris bean4cow - You are another now."
00:24:31 Didn't his voice sound strange just now?
00:27:48 Foureyes, cut the crap and get to the point, man.
00:30:42 That means you too.
00:35:12 Sorry about that, Mrs. Lazybones.
00:38:41 minus eight...
00:42:21 This must be it.
00:46:25 Oh God... I feel really bad asking this, but...
00:50:23 No, of course not.
00:53:40 What the... I can't believe this.
00:56:33 Did you guys find him?
01:00:22 Normally we're not allowed to give out addresses just like that.
01:04:10 What a cool crystal ball you've got.
01:07:29 Maybe I can turn it into a brooch... But I can only give you 20 Euros for it.
01:11:08 Well, I guess that's that.
01:13:53 Don't mess things up for me if you value your life.
01:18:00 Fourteen.
01:21:31 She can talk.
01:25:36 I like these pieces.
