Eleven Minutes

Eleven Minutes is the story of Maria, a young girl from a Brazilian village, whose first innocent brushes with love leave her heartbroken. At a tender age, she becomes convinced that she will never find true love, instead believing that ?love is a terrible thing that will make you suffer. . . .? A chance meeting in Rio takes her to Geneva, where she dreams of finding fame and fortune.

Maria?s despairing view of love is put to the test when she meets a handsome young painter. In this odyssey of self-discovery, Maria has to choose between pursuing a path of darkness?sexual pleasure for its own sake?or risking everything to find her own ?inner light? and the possibility of sacred sex, sex in the context of love.
