Fabrice du Welz : 2014

Manipulated by a loving and jealous husband, Gloria has run away with her daughter and started a new life far away from men and from the rest of the world. Impelled by her friend, Madeleine, she agrees to meet Michel through a dating site. The first time they see each other, there is a spark. Michel, a small-time gigolo, is thrilled and Gloria falls deeply in love. Out of fear, Michel runs away, but Gloria tracks him down and makes him promise never to leave her again. Desperate to salvage this love, she abandons her daughter and decides to pose as Michel's sister so he can continue his 'rich widow' scams. The two lovers remain tied to each other by some powerful link, but as she witnesses Michel's tricks, jealousy will gradually blight Gloria's life. Fabrice du Welz's third feature premiered at the Quinzaine des Réalisateurs at Festival de Cannes 2014.
