Don Giovanni is known throughout the city as a womanizer and philanderer. No lady seems to be safe with him. Every day he falls in love again and drops one after another just as quickly. Of course,he attracts not only the rancor of all the ladies, but also of their fathers. As he tries to seduce the lovely Donna Anna, it comes to a duel with her father, the Commander. Don Giovanni stabs him,but his spirit does not leave him and calls him to remorse and penitence. When Don Giovanni refuses, he is devoured by hell.
