Casanova's Big Night

In 15th-century Venice, a timid tailor named Francisiyama, who bears a striking resemblance to the legendary lover Casanova, is mistaken for the infamous rogue. He finds himself caught in a whirlwind of romantic entanglements and political intrigue when he's hired by a conniving baroness to woo the doge's daughter. The tailor must use his wits and charm to survive the perilous situations and the wrath of Casanova himself.
