Le roman d'Elvire

About the show

Libertine Gennaro refuses to marry Elvire and pursues wealth instead. Elvire disguises herself as an old woman; when Gennaro’s ventures fail, he marries her for financial protection. A potion restores her youth, and he is accused of murdering his wife. Facing execution, he would rather die than see Elvire become old again, convincing her of his love.
