After already making the rounds in Mexico and countries in Latin America, the Gloria Trevi movie is making a pit stop at this year’s SXSW Festival.
This can officially be considered as the U.S. premiere of “Gloria,” a bold and compelling musical drama told through the lens of the provocative, socio-politically charged music that made Trevi famous.
Mexicos most controversial pop-rock icon from the ’80s and ’90s is expected to participate in an in-depth onstage interview on Tuesday, March 17 and attend the red carpet ahead of the screening.
Gloria Trevi. Biopic. Pelo Suelto. SXSW. It sounds cool and all, but we’re looking forward to catching this flick in theaters nearby.
Those who lived through herliterallyhair raising scandals, musical breakthroughs and successes, as well as her comeback can back us up.

“Gloria” traces back to the beginning of Trevis trajectory in the eighties and nineties and her controversial and toxic bond with her manager and then husband Sergio Andrade, telling the true story of their destructive relationship and Andrades abusive sexual behavior and all its consequences.
It also chronicles Trevis astounding fall from grace in 2000 when she was accused of running a sex cult and thrown in jail to her triumphant acquittal and release in 2004.
