'Love is a terrible thing that will make you suffer ...'
So says Maria, a young Brazilian girl convinced from an early age that she will never find true love. A chance meeting in Rio takes her to Geneva, but the glittering life she hoped for is a fantasy. The reality - selling herself to survive - is a dehumanising grind that pushes her further away from real love, towards a fascination with pure physical pleasure. But when her emotional barriers are tested by a handsome young painter, she must choose between the dark path she is on and risking everything to find her inner light. Can she move beyond the meeting of bodies to a meeting of minds or even souls - to a place where sex itself is sacred?
