Bad Habits

🎞️ Movie 14 min --
2013

Jake and Leah are broken up. Now, months later, Jake surprises Leah, cornering her into participating in the closing dialogue of their entire relationship: rehashing and revealing carefully guarded egos, selfish manipulations, and defective desires. Bad Habits grounds itself in the seemingly mundane, final exchange both lovers will ever share, while visually flashing backward to glimpses of the ex-couple's road to destruction. A short that addresses the ordinariness within a uniquely destructive, coming-of-age relationship: the ups, the downs, the existing together, while existing apart; and that universal (while at first foreign) need to belong to someone's forever.
