After discovering his new bride has been unfaithful, the vengeful
King Shahriyar has her executed and begins sleeping with a
different virgin every night, executing her the next morning.
Eventually, no more virgins can be found, so the vizier's daughter
volunteers herself. To spare her own life, she captures his
attention with wild stories of adventure and chivalry--tales of
mystical lands, the many voyages of Sindbad, of Ali Baba's forty
thieves and of Aladdin's magical lamp. As one story leads into the
next, the king is too enthralled to end her life.
