Gloria is a woman who has reached middle age and still has plenty to give, and she also wants someone to complete her. It's not easy going through that stage of life, suddenly not being your children's most important priorities, having too much time and not enough to satisfy you.
In the hands of this amazing Chilean actress, we get to see a complex professional woman who is pretty self-sufficient; however, she longs for a companion, for someone to whisper sweet things in her ear, someone to please her physically and emotionally. The film depicts these aspects of her relationship honestly, leaving little to the imagination, and both actors expose their souls and bodies to make a point.
As I mentioned before, Gloria's odyssey is not without some major bumps, and when Gloria's family gets together with her new boyfriend, the results are too say the least a bit emotional, and the blame is to be spread all around, as old wounds fester, and we discover that Rodolfo's psyche is a bit more complicated than we expected.
At the end, we have a bittersweet scene showing us the best of Gloria, as she tries to restart herself. It's almost a replica of her opening scene. This time she throws herself into that familiar abandon, and we hope she has learned a little more, maybe something that will allow her to finally found her deserved happiness. We only hope this time things are a lot simpler.
