About

When Prince Ahmad is blinded and cast out of Bagdad by the nefarious Jaffar, he joins forces with the scrappy thief Abu to win back his royal place, as well as the heart of a beautiful princess.
Sinister, wide-eyed villainy radiates from the screen as a sorcerer plots to seize the throne through dark magic. This visual feast of early practical effects and sprawling desert landscapes turns a classic fairy tale into a shimmering dreamscape.
