As the new day dawns, the children of the household realize their father has come home -- and they're not especially happy about it. One of the older kids decides to pack up and leave, while the others stay home and fantasize about exacting revenge against their dad. Meanwhile, their neighbors deal with romantic and sexual problems of their own as they struggle through their morning meal and prepare for another day. Cronica de un Desayuno received its American premiere at the 2000 Chicago Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
