Set in 1949 Toronto, this film tells the story of Isabelle, a telephone operator who is leading a double life. She is having a clandestine affair with another operator, Alice, while her boyfriend Ricky is secretly making plans to elope with her to Niagara Falls. “Switch” is a camp forties-style thriller in which the desires of a lusty femme fatale lead to double-crossing, broken hearts and murder.
