Film Synopsis

"She's the one who boxed me into a corner, pushed me to the limits of what I am capable of and made me confront the absolute: love, tenderness, sacrifice and abandon.  She took me, broke me, transformed me...  Why didn't anyone warn me?  Why don't people talk about things like this?"
