Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
In a light story of angels and human redemption, Arne Mortensen (Jesper Langberg) is an irascible, mean-spirited husband and father of two older children who runs a shoe factory with a heavy iron hand. One day he becomes insanely jealous of his children's love for their chauffeur (Paul Huttel), and with the chauffeur in the car with him, he crashes into a wall. The hitch is that Arne dies, the chauffeur lives -- but nasty Arne's soul is transferred to the chauffeur's body. A second hitch is that two angels in heaven have been charged with reforming one bad guy if they want to keep their heavenly status -- and Arne's soul is elected.
