The story follows a single mother and her teenage daughter. Mother Tess is a mental health doctor. Her husband died unexpectedly. As a good wife and mother, Tess takes care of her young son and 15-year-old daughter Anna. But Anna, who was in adolescence, and her mother always had different views on things big and small. Tess didn't understand Anna's pursuit of music, clothes, and hairstyle, and Anna also didn't understand her mother's responsibilities as a psychiatrist and the upcoming stepfather in his own family. They are always arguing, not knowing how to understand each other and walk into each other's hearts.
Daughter Anna loves music but is despised by her mother and feels that her mother doesn't care about her. Mother Tess also felt that her daughter was not considerate of herself at all. It happens that Anna's concert date coincides with Tess's remarriage wedding rehearsal, and the conflict between the two intensifies.
In a Tang Dynasty restaurant, the two of them came up with an idea at the same time to make themselves become each other and let the other party see how they deal with it. And with the participation of a Chinese grandmother's fortune cookie, they really swapped - that is, the mother became the daughter, and the daughter became the mother.
The solution is for both to be selfless and considerate of the other. Helpless, they had no choice but to walk into each other's lives: the mother went to her daughter's school, and the daughter became a psychiatrist instead of her mother. They got to know each other from different perspectives, and let both mother and daughter learn about each other again.
The mother in the film falls in love with another man three years after her husband's death and wants to marry him. But she never went to ask her thoughtful and self-respecting daughter if she would. And the daughter's actual thought is: no one can replace my father. And when they became each other, the daughter, as the "future stepfather's fiancee", finally truly understood the stepfather's thoughts and the stepfather's love for herself and her mother... It was the stepfather who promised Anna to perform at the concert, which made her still playing her mother. Anna was deeply moved.
If it wasn't for this exchange, maybe the daughter would never know the stepfather's love. Although the mother in her daughter's body knew nothing about music, she still performed hard on the stage, which made Anna finally understand her mother. It turned out that her mother still cared about her and fulfilled her wish. At the final wedding, Anna expressed her thoughts - my dad is the best, but if it's you, there's room for you in our family.
The mother and daughter in the film are like the relationship between children and parents in most families in real life. Parents give their children everything they want, but they don't understand their children's hearts, so they give them in their own way. But the children are not happy either. What you give is not what I want, so we get along with each other with our own attitudes. When they switch identities, they really understand each other's lives
