The year is 1764. For over a year, Josef has been leading a precarious life in Venice. He hopes to become an opera composer. The city, full of talented and already-established composers, seems closed to him. Looking for work as a violinist, he comes into the orbit of a rich young woman. Thanks to her, he gets the opportunity to play at salons. But his real opportunity arises when he becomes the lover of a libertine marquise. She teaches him worldly manners, rids him of signs of a provincial upbringing and introduces him to a hedonistic existence free from religious intolerance. Thus transformed, Josef gets an incan incredible commission: to write an opera for the San Carlo, Europe's largest theatre.

It's like when you have a friend who's a master chef but when you go there for dinner he decides to play spin the bottle instead. Josef Mysliveček was a Czech composer famous for writing beautiful music so they decided it would be better to make a 2 1/2 hour movie about how he slept around, even though Mysliveček's Wikipedia page says, "Other than a reputation for promiscuity recorded in the Mozart correspondence, nothing is known of Mysliveček's love life. ... There is no documentation to support reports of romantic liaisons with the singers Caterina Gabrielli and Lucrezia Aguiari; no mention of love affairs with these singers pre-dates the publication of the fifth edition of the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians (1954)." Look, you guys know me and know that I have less culture than a lab petri dish so there's something seriously wrong if **I'm** the one saying they needed more opera and less a litany of all the women he may or may not have banged.
