Dove Review

Sometimes when things are tough in your life it might be good to have a change of scenery. In this story by one accidental phone call between two women a decision is made that will alter both their lives. Both have had unforeseen incidents that were devastating and so they exchange homes for a couple of months.

Although this movie has some really good qualities, some of the content is outside of the Dove guidelines and it cannot be awarded our Dove Seal.
