Gloria

Gloria is a young at heart 50-something. The leading character s quest to be loved and valued is set over the clamours of a Chilean society that wants its rights to be recognised. This sensitive and sharply humorous fourth feature from Chilean director Sebastian Lelio is exclusively and radically told from a single viewpoint. While playing a supporting role in the lives of all those around her, Gloria is at the very centre of the film forcing us to observe events through the eyes of a woman searching for her place in a hardened world that seems to have neither time nor space for her, yet defending her individual freedom with heart and pride. Gloria is a paean to the tenacity and courage of a generation of Chilean women who are determined to keep on feeling, dancing and living.SPECIAL FEATURES[] Paulina Garcia interview[] Q&A with director Sebastian Lelio at the Watershed Bristol with Mark Cosgrove [] Original theatrical trailer
