The film depicts with great realism life in modern day Chile, addressing how gender roles and family life have—and have not—changed despite sexual liberation, consumerism, and capitalism. Gloria was awarded Best Film in the San Sebastian International Film Festival and the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival. Paulina Garcia, in the title role, won two awards for best actress (Hawaii International Film Festival and 63rd Berlin International Film Festival).
