Flo has just lost his job and spends the summer wandering aimlessly around Albuquerque with his best friend, Trey. The two spend their time thinking up plans for making some easy money. But after Trey gets Flo involved in a car theft, he can’t help feeling sorry for the owner of the stolen car, charming Marisa. He falls in love with Marisa and thus finds himself in a difficult situation: whether he should betray Flo’s faith in him or follow this new sentiment. “Like everyone on screen in Bad Posture, I grew up in Albuquerque. My mom didn’t let me watch tv or movies very often, but the ones I did see generally took place far away from New Mexico. Recently, due to tax credits, Hollywood has come to town, but I still haven’t seen a film that is true to Albuquerque as I remember it. My main goal in making bad posture was to create something that actually captures New Mexico.”
