Osamu Tezuka’s A Thousand & One Nights [Blu-ray]

OSAMU TEZUKA S FEISTY, FREEWHEELING VISION OF THE ARABIAN NIGHTS FROM ALADDIN, TO THE FORTY THIEVES, TO SINBAD, AND BEYOND The water-seller Aldin is poor, but happy and free; when he encounters the slave girl Miriam, he decides to share his freedom (and much more!) with her, stealing her away from her owner.

He loses everything in prison, and so when he’s released, he sets off on a world-spanning adventure, robbing the storied Forty Thieves, testing his mettle against an island of beautiful and savage women, encountering giants, genies, and just maybe, his long-lost child.
