The first feature film from director Simon Bross, the drama Bad Habits shows how a persons approach to food greatly affects ones life. Jimena Ayala plays a nun named Matilde who believes that eating next to nothing will help God stop the suffering of others. She trains pudgy, young Linda (Elisa Vicedo) for her first communion. Lindas mother is an emaciated exercise addict who frets over her daughters shape. Lindas father, Gustavo, is a libertine who enjoys food as well as a healthy sex life with a mistress. Gustavo, an architect, must figure out why the pipes of a local school are leaking under the strain of a seemingly ceaseless rainstorm.~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
