Synopsis

Don Juan's sexual conquests have gained him an infamous reputation all over Europe.

When the Devil himself begins to drag him to Hell, Don Juan makes a bargain: In exchange for another ten years of life, he will commit to doing the Devil's dark work himself by bedding as many women as possible and leaving them wanting and devastated.
