In the heart of the Danube Delta, superstition and religion are mixed together, like the earth and water that make up the mysterious mud from Tekir’s area, not far away. Chased away from her village because of her mysterious pregnancy, Mara finds herself employed at the Europa Hotel, providing treatment for infertile women using this miraculous mud. As she meets the rich and eccentric Mrs. Lili, Mara questions her beliefs and intuitions. The relationship between the two women is the key of the miracle of Tekir, between magic and power, tradition and modernity.

카사노바 후작은 과거 화려한 여성편력으로 유명했던 인물이다. 스위스에 사는 그는 노쇠했음에도 불구하고 여전히 삶을 만끽한다. 어느 날 충실한 종복과 함께 루마니아의 작은 농촌마을에 도착한 후 여자들을 탐한다. 그곳에는 드라큘라 백작이 살고 있다. 카사노바와 드라큘라가 한 영화에 등장한다고 해서 할리우드식 장르 혼성을 기대해서는 안 된다. 이 영화는 그보다 훨씬 독창적이고 섬세하며 시적이다. 퇴락한 카사노바가 인간의 식욕과 성욕을 극히 추잡스럽게 대변한다면 흡혈 후 괴성을 지르는 드라큘라는 하인의 말마따나 우울증에 시달리는 듯하다. 이 둘은 가슴 깊이 채워지지 않는 갈증과 차가운 고독을 공유한다. 그래서 대부분 밤에 촛불조명하에 촬영된 어두운 샷들은 그들의 처지와 하나가 된다. 아름답고 정교한 미장센도 돋보이지만 섬세한 사운드 연출 또한 이 영화를 형언할 수 없는 시정으로 가득 채운다. 프롤로그의 낭만적이고 에로스적인 음악과 마음을 뒤흔드는 바람소리가 그렇다. 올해 로카르노영화제 황금표범상 수상작으로, 스페인의 독창적인 작가 알베르 세라의 일곱 번째 장편이다.
