Synopsis:

In northern Brazil, Hermila patiently waits for her husband. However, he has abandoned her. Sexy, restless and resolute, she raffles off “a night in paradise” with herself. This beautifully-shot portrait doesn’t shy away from the burdens of a young scarred woman, but it also celebrates her courage to live according to her own rules.
