N2  - ''Love is a terrible thing that will you suffer...'' So says Maria, a young Brazilian girl convinced from an early age that she will never find true love. A chance of meeting in Rio takes her to geneva, but the glittering life she hoped for was a fantasy. the reality - selling herself to survive- is a dehumanizing grind that pushes her further away from real love, towards a fascination wit 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?
