Rating: 8/10
This film portraits the daily life of Gloria, an average Chilean
divorced 50-something woman. The plot as such may not seem exciting or
innovative at first but the character of Gloria makes up for it all. We
are invited to share the way Gloria confronts different situations in
her life, and we are blown away by her passion, sense of humor and
independence. It may be telling that even several days after watching
the film I find myself thinking about Gloria and smiling. An honest
portrait that runs smoothly thanks the superb acting of the main
character and the right combination of scenery and soundtrack. Highly
recommended.
