Living Bad

Living Bad (Portuguese: Viver Mal) is a 2023 Portuguese-French drama film directed by João Canijo.

[2] Starring Nuno Lopes and Leonor Silveira, the film portrays the story of a family-run hotel by the northern shore of Portugal, which welcomes its guests over the weekend.

At the same time, Bad Living, a second film was made, that focuses on the female members of the hotel-owning family.

"[9] Lee Marshall writing for ScreenDaily stated that the film is "A fascinating exercise in ‘narrative reverse-shot’ filmmaking."

Concluding, Marshall wrote, "Living Bad’s dramas are reduced to tiny storms in a teacup in one of a series of long-shots of the entire façade that function a little like the worldly-wise interventions of the chorus in a Greek tragedy.
