Lila is a graduate student in psychology. She's running out of money and cannot pay her rent. Her roommate invites her to make an explicit movie as a way to make some money. As an entree, the roommates become lovers and Cybele secretly films them together. When she shows Lila the movie, Lila likes what she sees and most importantly does not feel intimidated by seeing herself in an erotic movie. In fact she rather enjoys it. Cybele gradually introduces her to the other activities of a group of women who are truly a sisterhood. One of these activities is very much like a therapy group, in which the women have an opportunity to recount and explore traumatic events in their own lives, and receive support and nurturance from the other women. Mindfulness practice is part of the healing process and also helps those who have multiple partners to be intensely involved and then let go into something even larger than the love and pleasure they have been immersed in.
