The opera canvas is based on a literary source by Slovenian author Simona Semenič, who – together with composer Nina Šenk – is also responsible for the libretto. Through a change of perspective, the Don Juan story becomes a narrative of four women from different origins. The work presents their stories as a narrative kaleidoscope in a multilayered crossfading of identities.

The four heroines are united by their love for the same man. He is the canvas for their dreams, desires, and longings; each sees something different in him. All the storylines converge in one moment: a young woman in the hospital takes her last breath. Nina Šenk uses a variegation of new sounds for maximum musical immediacy. Her composition transforms feelings into sound images that can literally be experienced physically.
