Could someone write a summary of this movie from beginning to end

I can't believe I am actually going to do this because normally I hate people that can't be bothered to watch the movie...but I love it so much I'll take the opportunity to write about it. I don't know if you're trying to write a paper or something though so I'm giving you the bare bones without any of the obvious poetry and symbolism in the movie. I write no university papers without cash in hand, $20 per page.

-The movie begins with a falconer, his bird, and a crowd of people waiting for a show of the bird's skill. When he lets the bird go after a hyped up conversation given by the owner about its power, it kills a dove.

-"10" - a young Spanish painter, Ana, lives with her bohemian German father in a cave in Ibiza or Mallorca (some Spanish island known for partying and hippies). A patron of the arts and school director offers her a free scholarship to her art school.
-"9" - Ana moves to the city, leaving her father behind in the cave. The school is pretty free, there are co-ed bathrooms and you have to study all areas of the arts. During this time, she meets her best friend, Lydia.
"8" - In a fairly dramatic and to the point way she meets the love of her life, Said.
"7" - During a dinner at a restaurant, she has a flashback that traumatizes her so severely she has to be put in a hypnotic state. Something she says interests the hypnotist and causes Said to leave Ana without explanation.
"6" - Ana moves in with Lydia and Anglo (the American hypnotist). Throughout the movie, she keeps in touch with her father through letters. Through hypnotism, Ana relives and reenacts the deaths of many young women from different times and cultures.
"5" - Ana finally agrees to a conscious hypnosis where she will remember everything. The only thing she wants to know is why Said left. Her past life with Said is not the happiest one and is marred with many tragedies. Lydia receives some bad news from her family.
"4" - Ana learns that her father has been ejected from his cave and is dying. She flies to meet him in Valencia and shares a final father-daughter dance with him.
"3" - Ana stows away on a ship and sails to New York, trying to escape her depressing past (lives?).
"2" - Anglo tracks Ana to New York, insisting that he needs to speak with her. With the death of her father, we lose narration about Ana's feelings. Ana goes to the place where her first life took place. She fights with Anglo and Justine (the French school director) claiming to not want to know more about the past.
"1" - Now working in a restaurant in New York, Ana encounters Said again. She finds out the slightly disturbing reason for Said abandoning her. He does it again when she wakes in the morning and finds him gone.
"0" - Ana works at a restaurant in a hotel and speaks fluent but accented English. She is catering the lunch of a wealthy politician and is invited to his room. After a "misunderstanding", he beats her almost to a pulp. In an enigmatic scene, Ana walks down the street bloody but laughing.

In the final scene, Ana floats naked in the ocean. Her art work, which features so prominently in the movie, is shown over the credits.
