Summary
"Lotte Reiniger's enchanting 1926 animated masterpiece The Adventures of Prince Achmed is all about magic - from the flying horse our hero rides into a series of wondrous adventures to the glorious bird who removes her plumage to reveal that she is a princess in disguise. Throw in Aladdin, an evil sorcerer, and a powerful witch, and you have a timeless story of love, jealousy, revenge, and transformation."--Container.
