Gloria Gloria

Sebastián Lelio / Chile, Spain / 2012 / 105 min

A tragicomic pic spotlighting fragile hope and sobering realisation of a strong woman capable of maintaining her strength and independence despite being caught in a whirlwind of conflicting emotions.

Gloria is a 58-year-old divorcée. Her children have all left home but she has no desire to spend her days and nights alone. She rushes headlong into a whirl of singles’ parties on the hunt for instant gratification – which just leads repeatedly to disappointment and emptiness. But then she meets Rodolfo, an ex-naval officer to whom she feels romantically inclined. However, Gloria gradually finds herself being forced to confront her own dark secrets, marked also with forty years of recent, dark Chilean history.

»This generation of women in Chile went to Catholic schools, they were raised for marriage and now at this age they are recovering after their families have fallen apart, after they have been abandoned, after their children have left. And now that nobody really has time for them, nobody really listens to them, they say, ‘No, fuck it, I am gonna live now!«
- Sebastián Lelio
