Switzerland is a country of four languages that have existed side by side in apparent symbiosis for centuries. Until one crazy referendum in which the population votes for only one national language: French. For German- and Italian-speaking Swiss, this is a shock. This includes police officer Walter Egli (56), who is tasked with ensuring a smooth transition to monolingualism. He doesn't speak French himself, and to avoid losing his job, he is forced to take on a thankless mission. He sets off with his unsympathetic French-speaking partner to rebellious Ticino, where they are tasked with infiltrating the resistance that demands the canton's secession from the rest of Switzerland and the preservation of the Italian language. Will they succeed in preventing the declaration of war that the government in Bern is threatening Ticino with? This wacky comedy with spy movie elements pokes fun at stereotypical Swiss traits.
