Dom Juan seduces, promises, abandons, and starts again. But this time, the statues have fallen from their pedestals: the old gods, the ancient laws, the moral and religious authorities lie on the ground, toppled. Dom Juan is no longer just a libertine; he is a child of his time: a man who understood before anyone else the power of hollow idols. Absent father, abandoned wife, unpaid debts, broken vows, he moves forward, sovereign and smiling, in a world whose rules he has dissolved. Only Sganarelle, his comic and terrified valet, still dares to believe in something... but in what, exactly? The play poses the question with disturbing modernity: when the statues fall, who remains standing? What values survive the shipwreck of certainties? And what if the real scandal wasn't Dom Juan himself, but the void he reveals around him?
