CGiii Comment

Every generation and country like to throw their version of Tootsie at the screen...most fail. This is, by far, no exception.

A male airline pilot loses his job and becomes a female airline pilot...yes, it is that bad.

He/she looks like a man with a bad wig...the writing is hideous, the characters are all repugnant and the scene with the little blind boy (not) playing football is ludicrous.

A comedy?!? No!

The(ir) Blurb...

After getting fired from his current job as a pilot and dumped by his current wife, he seeks to find a new job. Out of desperation on the job market he disguises himself as a woman in order to get a job from Silver, a company seeking a female pilot. The lines between his female and male life as well as his personal and love life starts to become a blur which he eventually cannot handle.
