Shadow

Want to be in someone else’s body for a change? I’m sure many have imagined that … including Johnny. Johnny is nine years old and loves spending time with Melanie. Melanie is totally fascinating and has been babysitting Johnny since birth. But the two are about to say goodbye to each other. A childish fantasy becomes reality when Johnny finds himself in Melanie’s body. Suddenly Johnny finds himself confronted with an adult everyday life, with realities around his own body, romantic and sexual relationships and professional responsibilities. HOMEBODY is a film about a special relationship, about identity and finding one’s place in society – told with great wit and a childlike curiosity.
