Tony Curtis plays TWINS in a horny 70s sex farce that somehow exists.
While hiding from the royal authorities, Giacomo Casanova, the famous romancer, encounters his look-alike: Giacomino, a fugitive petty con man. Meanwhile, the Arabian Caliph and his wife are arriving in Venice for a state visit, and she insists on a night with the legendary lover. Through a series of erotic encounters and mistaken-identity comedies, Giacomo and Giacomino make their way back to Venice for their appointment with the Caliph's wife.

This was one of three Casanova films Tony Curtis made in the 1970s, essentially typecasting himself as Hollywood's horniest twin.
Franz Antel was a Austrian director who spent the 70s churning out sex comedies that walked the line between mainstream and softcore — this was actually one of his more 'prestigious' casts.
