A period comedy-drama that uses Casanova's formative years to paint an affectionate, satirical portrait of 18th-century Venetian society and its pervasive hypocrisies.

Through the childhood and adolescence of Signor Giacomo Casanova (from his memoirs), this is a description of how people lived in 18th-century Venice: their customs, habits, medicine, religion, and--most of all--the omnipresence of hypocrisy.
