Synopsis:

Directed by David Sainz, Malviviendo gives us a glimpse into the lives of some badly living people of Seville and their daily habits. Sainz plays the main character, El Negro, who is in his seventh year of a three-year college course. He admits to having found 'el gusto' for the first year, and spends a lot more time studying the bottle than his books. He takes his job as a 'gorrilla' (or, unlicensed park attendant) very seriously and believes he is offering a social service rather than ripping people off. He learned everything he knows from the master of masters: an ex-prima ballerina who traded his ballet shoes for heroin. His friends share El Negro's mentality and join him in his daily mischief. El Zurdo (David Valderrama) is one of the barrio's best drug dealers-despite his unfortunate ineptitude (hence his nickname El Zurdo, 'The Leftie'). El Kaki (Tomás Moreno) is a food fetishist who always dresses in military clothes and makes abundantly clear his love for melons (in every episode…). Maria (Amanda Mora) is Zurdo's sister and tends to play the lead role in El Negro's sexual fantasies. Each episode opens with a parody of an intro from a famous series such as Dexter, Sex and the City, The Sopranos and My Name is Earl.

Malviviendo (Spanish for Bad Living) is an online series produced by Different and directed by David Sainz. In July 2011, the show released its fourteenth episode. The first episode launched in November 24, 2008 and became successful in a few months with positive reviews by the public. It employs mostly amateur actors, and those involved in the series do it for free. The series is set in the fictional neighborhood of "Los Banderilleros" of the Spanish city of Seville. The characters are a group of friends trapped in their everyday bad lives related to consumption of cannabis or other problems individual to each character. The show contains allusions to and parodies of a variety of other series, including Dexter, My Name Is Earl, The Sopranos, Lost, ALF, The X-Files, Prison Break, Sex and the City, The Brady Bunch, South Park, Boardwalk Empire, The IT Crowd and How I Met Your Mother.

Ever wondered why your excellent high school Spanish failed you while on holiday in Andalusia? It may have something to do with the fact that the sun seems to burn away certain letters. Depending on where you are, the heat may even confuse the letters C and Z. If you love deciphering different Spanish accents and have always amused yourself by imitating 'el español callejero,' you're going to love Malviviendo!
