Lying in bed, Thomas recalls the childhood he's certain he lost to neighborhood playmate... Told in a flashback, this film recounts the hilarious tale of a boyhood rivalry that lasts a lifetime. Lying in bed, Thomas recalls the childhood he's certain he lost to neighborhood playmate Alfred Kant. Thomas believes it all started years ago when a hospital fire caused their infant name tags to be switched. Ever since he can remember, the embittered man has felt he belonged to the wealthy Kant family and that he should have lived Alfred's privileged, pampered life. Even Thomas' life-long crush on his sister Alice could have evolved into romance had he been a Kant instead of a Hasebroeck. Now an old man, he has nothing but a lifetime of heartbreaking memories to fall back on until an ironic twist of fate puts his mind to rest. [More]
