9th-graders Kazuo (boy) and Kazumi (girl) take a tumble at a temple in a small seacoast town in Japan. Through supernatural intervention, their minds and bodies are switched, and the result is a touching and hilarious coming-of-age comedy as they attempt to survive the pressures of junior high school life.

Good one, Jon. Rare film from the director of the horror cult classic House (1977). Cheers, mate!
I’ve been looking for this one too. Cheers!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Jon!! You are the best!
Great film. Already seen it. Looking forward to more Ôbayashis work.
