Five women are running an old hotel and trying to save it from inexorable decay. Guests arrive over the course of a weekend: a couple bears the wounds of a long-term misunderstanding; a domineering mother interferes in her daughter’s relationship; two girls try to save their own love story in the face of opposition from a possessive mother. Viver Mal is the reverse shot of Mal Viver, which is screening in the Competition: here, João Canijo reveals everything that was floating in the depth of field in this film’s mirror image. Reality becomes the intertwining and multiplication of different points of view; the intersection between what can be seen and what the eye misses. Like a play of light reflections, Viver Mal is Mal Viver in another dimension. The image is distorted, but at the same time seeks a new definition by relaunching itself into infinity.
哈瑞（杰瑞德·莱托 Jared Leto 饰）和玛丽安（詹妮弗·康纳利 Jennifer Connelly 饰）彼此相爱，梦想着开个服装店，梦想着有个美好的明天。然而他们都离不开毒品，并想着以销毒赚得第一桶金。哈瑞的母亲是个彻底的电视迷，最大的梦想是上电视，为此不顾年迈吞食减肥药。由于药品里的毒品成分，她渐渐上了瘾。哈瑞的朋友狄龙（马龙·韦恩斯 Marlon Wayans 饰）同样是个瘾君子，为了挣大钱加入了黑社会。为了梦想，他们努力着，却一步步深陷毒品难以自拔。 哈瑞的胳膊因注射毒品感染而被割去；玛丽安
