Storyline

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. Determined to defy old age and loneliness, she rushes headlong into a whirl of singles’ parties on the hunt for instant gratification – which only leads to repeated disappointment and enduring emptiness. But when Gloria meets Rodolfo, an ex-naval officer seven years her senior, she begins to imagine the possibility of a permanent relationship.

Critics consensus

“Marvelously directed by Sebastian Lelio and beautifully led by a powerful performance from Paulina Garcia, Gloria takes an honest, sweetly poignant look at a type of character that's all too often neglected in Hollywood.”

Gloria is magnetic and radiant... I left the theater feeling a little sad that a female lead like Garcia and a film like Gloria are both so rare.

The film's pulse comes in many ways from Garca's brave and beautiful central performance.

We don't make movies in America like Gloria, so we have to import them. I wish we'd import more -- and make a few, as well.

Subtle, sometimes too much... However, brining a festive note to characters that others reject and make fun of is always welcome. [Full review in Spanish]
