Tired of demonstrating his talents to a privileged elite, Mozart (Barnard) is brought to Prague by vain, self-obsessed aristocrat Baron Saloka (Purefoy), who lives a privileged life, apparently above the law. On his arrival, Mozart is happy to have found the one place on earth where he feels like his talent is appreciated and sets about creating a new opera at the Nostitz Theatre. However, Mozart's presence in Prague soon unleashes a series of dramatic and tragic events that go on to become immortalised in the world's most famous opera: "Don Giovanni."
