) depicts the tempestuous epoch where Enlightenment gave way to the passions and frivolity of Romanticism. Falsely marketed as an encounter between Casanova and Dracula, this playful but narratively benign riff on history's most infamous lothario's memoir is a Renaissance road trip into an opaque crevasse of depravity. An unhurried and painstakingly crafted labyrinth rich in lurid insinuation, we follow Casanova (an ageing Marquis played by Vicen? Altai?) as he gets to know his new manservant.
