Venice, 1725. As a smallpox epidemic claims victims across the city, one of its most illustrious women is found murdered in the dark, icy waters of the Rio dei Mendicanti. Amidst growing tension, Giovanni Antonio Canal, known as Canaletto, is summoned by the State Inquisitors, who are suspicious of one of his recent paintings depicting that very place. Under the direct orders of the Doge, the painter must uncover the truth behind the crime, leading him into a world of dark rituals and mysterious figures that could compromise Venice's most powerful families.
