Foreign Exchange

Foreign Exchange

An Anglo-French comedy of manners: manipulative middle-aged Amanda sends her seventeen-year-old son to France on a foreign exchange, hoping to connect with her lost love, a French doctor. But the doctor with the magic healing hands (father of a teenage daughter with an erotic agenda of her own) is not who she thinks he is. Between adolescent and middle-aged lust, unexpected consequences surface.
