[Aladdin]
Cursed to be haven mad...

[indistinct]

Proclaimed our separation
on high.

[emotional music]

Will be
ever return to live

beneath the same roof.

[Shahrazad] Aladdin!

[suspenseful music]

[Aladdin sighs]

♪ That everything ♪

♪ Is a delightful ♪



Green garden

♪ And you... ♪

♪ On this green grass ♪

♪ Imagine being
The drop of doom ♪

[Aladdin sighs]

[emotional music]

[Aladdin] You are not here
to play.

But to finish
telling your story.

Is the last night
that I grant you.

Tomorrow, you die.

Carry on
from where you left off.

Shahrazad,

had been sentenced
to death by the robbers.

while Aladdin...



had moved to the mysterious
Namuna's palace.

What happens next? Begin!

[mysterious music]

Shahrazad
was awaiting her death...

at Omar's hand.

[men screaming and grunting]

[Shahrazad] No!

-[Shahrazad sighing]
-Kill her!

-I sentence you death.
-[Shahrazad screams] No!

If you kill her, kill me too.

[Omar grunts]

Is this what you want
to be Omar?

the killer
of two defenseless women?

-Kill her.
-Yes.

If I spare her,
she will betray me.

She won't.

-She's my sister.
-Her sister?

She came here for me.

If you don't trust her
enough to release her,

keep her with you.

She'll help me with the work.

If you tried to escape,

I will show no mercy.

Drop the camp,
we'll live before dawn.

-You must kill her.
-No complaining!

-No complaining!
-[men muttering]

-Where we're going?
-None of your business.

[men complaining and grunting]

I owe you my life.

Let's start
gathering up the dishes.

[mysterious music continues]

-[rooster clucking]
-[Sallin] Load up!

Bring those crates up!

Go get the flasks.

Bring out those boxes.

[emotional music]

Hey! Back to work.

[horse neighs]

[Shahrazad] Thanks
to Jasmine's courage.

Shahrazad had been saved.

But the rich princess,
had now become a slave.

[Shahrazad] Can I have
some water? Water?

-Please!
-[Sallin] Water? [laughing]

-She wants water. [laughing]
-[robber laughing]

Get up! Get up!

[suspenseful music]

[snorting] Rise and shine sire.

[Aladdin sighs] I feel as
if I've slept a hundred years.

What time is it?
I have to get to work.

First, your toilet. [snorts]

Who are those clothes belong to?

[servant] It's your
new wardrobe.

The mistress had it made up
specially for you.

While I was sleeping?

Is this to your liking?
[snorting]

It's magnificent!

[servant] What would you like
for breakfast?

I don't know, hmm...

Flatbread with cucumbers?

-Do you have that?
-[servant hums]

Flatbread for cucumbers
for lord Aladdin.

Such speed.

It's delicious!

Even better than lesus.

Do you desire anything else?

Is the lady already up?

She usually rests
until midday. [snorts]

When she wakes
tell her I'm in the library.

Sire. [purrs]

Geography, History,

Philosophy.

What's this?

What happened marked me
for the rest of my life.

I understood...

that instant gratification
far desires.

Not only
doesn't bring happiness

but it can lead to ruin.

[suspenseful music]

What are you reading?

I don't know.
It's a sort of diary.

-Where did you find it?
-It was up there.

It belonged to the former owner
of the palace.

Take this one,
it's much more amusing.

Come, let's read in the garden.

I'm just supposed
to catalogue the books.

Reading to me
is also part of your job.

[birds chirping]

You drank your full
alluding by charm.

-You must be the wily Sinbad.
-[Namuna laughs]

You were saying
someone lived here before you.

Oh yes, an old scientist.

-A poor mad fool.
-[parrot] Help.

Did you hear that?

-No.
-[parrot] I'm here.

[sighs] That stupid parrot

never loses the habit
of frightening my guests.

-[Namuna sighs]
-I thought it was a man's voice.

Because he imitates
so perfectly.

'Help, free me!"

[grunts] He says over and over.

That damn bird.

[Namuna moans]

[Namuna sighs]

Red is your favorite color.

You noticed.

[Namuna sighs] You're so kind.

It's a long time since anyone
did anything romantic for me.

I find it hard to believe
that a beautiful woman like you

has no suitors.

[sighs] There have been
some in the past but

men have always proved
a disappointment to me.

[birds singing]

And what about you?
Have you ever been in love?

Only once.

But she didn't want me.

She must have been a fool

If she couldn't see
your qualities.

[eagle screaming]

[suspenseful music]

[gasps] What do you want?

I just want to get to know you.

-Where are you running to?
-[Shahrazad screams]

-Wait, came here.
-[Shahrazad screams]

-Take it easy!
-[Shahrazad screams]

Sallin!

Pitch the tents up there.

[Sallin grunts]

The fire's lit.

-[Shahrazad gasps]
-Back to work.

How many have you done?

This is the last one.

What am I supposed
to do with them?

Pluck them, gut them, wash them,

skewer them on these bits
and put them over the fire.

[men talking]

Do it by the water.

It's easier.

[emotional music]

[Shahrazad crying]

[knife clatter]

[Shahrazad panting]

Your sister looks
nothing like you.

What's her name again?

Shahrazad.

Is the water warm enough?

Yes, it's perfect.

We could stop here...

In these mountains.

The men need rest.

You know rest doesn't suit me.

The last hole was a big one.

Why do you want
to carry on risking a life

-when you can enjoy
what you have?

Because it's not
enough for me.

-What do you want?
-Dinner's ready.

-Eat this garbage yourself!
-[men laughing]

Eat this! Eat this!

[men laughing and mumbling]

Shahrazad!

-[Shahrazad crying]
-[men laughing outside]

[emotional music]

Hey!

[Shahrazad moans]

Have been better of dying
than living like this. [crying]

[sighs] I miss my father.

I love them so much
and now I have no one.

You have a sister.

-Are these yours?
-Aladdin.

A boy from Baghdad
gave them to me.

Must be worth a fortune.

They're not diamonds,
they're bits of glass.

He made them for me
with his own hands

to remind me of the starry night
when we first kissed.

And where is he now?

In Baghdad.

[emotional music continues]

I didn't listened to my heart.

And I've lost him.

[emotional music ends]

[wind blowing]

[mysterious music]

He's right for the picking.

[Namuna laughs] Tonight I shall
finally have what I desire.

Even without the help
of that stubborn old fool.

What do you think, my lady?

[Namuna sighs] Perfect.

Tell Aladdin
that we will dine in my room.

-[servant purring and snorting]
-Go!

Yes my lady.

[mysterious music]

[pig snorting]

[pig snorting]

[Namuna sighs]

You are very beautiful.

Do you like the surprise
that I prepared for you?

[wind blowing]

Very much.

Here we can admire
the stars that we both love.

[Namuna sighs]

-To us.
-To the luck...

that brought us together.

The luck is all mine.

I've waited so long
for a man like you.

A man... capable of loving.

With pure and honest heart.

Kiss me Aladdin.

Kiss me that way
no one has ever kissed me.

[Namuna moans]

[Namuna moans]

[suspenseful music]

[Aladdin sighs]

I can't.

You don't find me attractive?

I find you very attractive.

But... my heart
belongs to another.

I thought
that I had forgotten her,

but this moment
just reminded me of her.

I'm sorry.

Shahrazad is the one I love.

[emotional music]

How dare you reject me?

You're mine.

Mine and no one else's.

[Aladdin screams]

[servant] Let's go! [snorting]

-Hey Jasmine--
-[Sallin hushes]

If you behave
nothing is going to happen.

-[Shahrazad grunting]
-[Sallin hushes]

-[Shahrazad screaming]
-[Sallin panting]

This soft skin.

-[Sallin hushes] Nice and sweet.
-[Shahrazad grunting]

[Omar] Hey, let her go!

She's mine, you have your woman.

-[Shahrazad panting]
-Get your things

and get out of here.

In my gang there is no room
for people like you.

[Sallin grunts]
[suspenseful music]

Gather the men,
I have something to say to them.

-Are you hurt?
-No, everything's fine.

I've decided our next goal.

The emerald
of the Magic Mountain,

one million riyals.

[robber 2] We know
what happens to those

who climb that mountain.

We will die if we go up there.

[Sallin] Don't you get it?
[suspenseful music]

He's mad!

He treats us like animals.

He only cares about his women.

Come with me
to raid a caravan of traitors.

He's not our leader anymore.
[suspenseful music]

[Sallin and Omar grunting]

Whoever wants to go
with this slime

better do it now.

Otherwise he will taste
my sword.

The others wait for me here.

I am going
alone, to the mountain!

[men cheering]

Jasmine!

[men screaming and cheering]
Omar!

[emotional music]

The mountain asks
an impossible question.

And turns to stone anyone
who doesn't know the answer.

Nobody has ever passed the test.

Omar will die.

Why do you care so much for him?

Before meeting him...

I used to dance
at the tavern in Kum.

[emotional music ends]

The owner beat me
and so I ran away.

[mysterious music]

[sighs]

I lost my way
in the thick woods.

-[horse neighs]
- It was dark.

I was trying
to get away from him.

[horse neighing]

[mysterious music ends]

And I felt into a ravine.

[emotional music]

I broke a leg
and I couldn't move.

I knew I would be dead
before dawn.

But someone found me...

and saved my life.

That person is Omar.

The days we spent together...

were the happiest of my life.

But the happiness
was short lived.

[Sallin] That's a good plan.

All we need to do
is gather the gang.

[thug 2] Do you think
we can do it?

It sounds like an easy job.

What about the diamonds?

[Sallin] They're in Shiraz
waiting for you.

But we need to make a move now

otherwise someone else
we'll get them before us.

But maybe you have other plans.

The plan is the same.

Get the horses ready,
we're leaving.

-Who are all those men?
-Robbers.

Just like me.

I was on the run...

but it's over now.

But what about us?

I'm going to Shiraz
to join the rest of my gang.

You do what you want.
You don't have to follow me.

But I've followed them
all the same

to Shiraz, to Letz,
wherever they went to steal.

Every time hoping
that would be the last.

That the plunder would suffice,

but it's never enough for him.

How can you stand
being with a man...

that puts more value
on money than on you.

I love him.

And I still hope
to win him back.

[emotional music]

I wish I had the hope you did.

To believe that maybe someday
I might win back Aladdin's love.

But for me it isn't so.

[Shahrazad] Omar?

[Shahrazad] Omar?

[horse neighing]

[suspenseful music]

[Omar sighs] What are you doing
in my tent?

I was looking for you.

I want to help you
stole the emerald.

Get out! I don't need your help.

[Shahrazad panting and moaning]

I can solve
the mountains riddle.

Really?

Do you know how many
men died trying?

-How could you succeed?
-Because I've read many books

And I know every
field of knowledge

better than many erudite men.

If you let me answer...

I won't get it wrong.

And you'll have
the stone you desire.

Why do you want
to risk your life for me?

Because I have
nothing else to lose.

[emotional music]

But you do.

[Aladdin] Let me out of here.

I want to go.

[parrot] No sense in shouting
yourself hoarse.

No one can hear you.

-Who said that?
-I'm here, to the left.

[humorous music]

A talking parrot?

[parrot] What's that?
I can't hear you.

[grunts] A stone hit my eardrum.
I'm still a bit dazed, sorry.

-You were saying
-You really have

the voice of a man.

-You must be bewitched.
-[parrot] I am a man.

You see me like this
because a spell was cast on me

that turned me
into a feathered being.

You've nothing to say?
Like I'm sorry.

How did it happen?
Who did this to you?

-How did it happen.
-Sit down.

It stresses me talking
to someone who's standing.

First of all
my name is Mahmoud Al Gin.

Better known
as the wise man of Abakur.

-You are a wise man?
-Of botany.

Or at least it was ten years ago

when I retired
to this place to devote myself

to a series of experiments.

Concerning the cultivation
of strawberries.

-[Aladdin] Why strawberries?
-[parrot] Don't interrupt!

Because I've had a passion
for them,

ever since I was a child.

I lived a peaceful life...

but also a very lonely one.

[doorbell ringing]
And so, one day...

when a young woman
turned up at my gate

- asking to become my student,
-[Namuna sighs] Thank you.

[parrot] I decided
to take her in

so I could have
a little company.

She was very interested
in my research.

And... I had someone
to talk to at last.

But it was a different
kind of research

that had brought her to my home.

[mysterious music]
[Namuna gasps]

[tense music]
[Namuna sighs]

[Namuna sighing]

[Namuna panting]

[parrot] When I found out

that she was a sorceress
called Namuna...

This doesn't work.

[parrot] ...it was too late.

Where is the real one?

[parrot] I refused to give her
what she wanted.

Tell me where is the real one?

And she punished me
by turning me into a bird.

-That's terrible.
-Ten years.

shut up in here swinging
on this patch like an idiot.

At least the others
keep each other company.

-What others.
-The pigs.

[pigs snorting]

All victims of that sweet lady.

Why did she do it?

-What does she want?
-Don't you realize?

She wants love!
Love with a capital 'L'.

Love that sets
your heart pounding. [grunts]

The trouble is,
she doesn't have a heart.

So if I don't make her happy...

she would do the same with me.

You can bet my feathers on it.

[parrot grunts]

-Unless...
-What?

you sacrifice yourself
settle down with her

-and free us all.
-You must be dreaming.

I love someone else.

I'll never settle
down with a witch.

It was just an idea.

If you have a better one.

We have to get that ring
that she uses for her spells.

Negative. She never
parts with it.

I read a book in the library.

-Yes...
-About a scientist

who lived in Syracuse.

Archimedes you mean,

the inventor
of the parabolic mirror.

The room is full
of mirrors too.

-Mirrors! [purrs]
-Animals.

-Brilliant!
-[Aladdin sighs] Yeah!

[servant] My lady.

Come darling.

Don't be afraid.

Should I be?

[Namuna] Yesterday evening
you made me angry.

But, if you're
be nice with me...

I'll be nice with you.

-I can be very sweet.
-[Aladdin sighs]

-[Namuna sighs]
-And if I'm not nice with you?

[mysterious music]

What will you do with me?

-Shut me in the pigsty?
[Namuna laughing]

[moans] Silly.

You're different from them.

You are special.

[Namuna gasps]

And what are you like?

Try me and you will see.

-[Namuna sighs]
-The fire of passion...

burns out in a flash.

But true love...

knows how to wait.

I've waited long enough. [sighs]

Make me burn. [sighs]

I want a real woman,
not some sorceress.

How dare you call me a witch.

Isn't that what you are?
A heartless witch.

Enough!

I'll show you
what I'm capable of.

[anticipatory music]

If you are not a man...

an animal you'll be!

[Namuna screams]

-[Aladdin sighs]
-[crow cawing]

[crow cawing]

[Aladdin grunting and sighing]

[wind blowing]

[Aladdin panting]

[mysterious music]

Mahmoud!

[parrot squawking]

-It worked!
-It worked.

-It worked!
-[Aladdin sighs]

Look, it worked!

It worked!
Look, I'm a man again.

I'm a man again! [moaning]

-[Aladdin grunts]
-Is something wrong?

-Everything is fine.
-[crow cawing]

We need to get going. Now!

[Arabic music]
[people talking and laughing]

When I think of all
the birdseed I ate

-the last ten years. laughs]
-[Aladdin laughs]

Oh, thank you!

I have a real craving for them.

-Did you see his head? Birdie!
-[people laughing]

Have you been here before?

They're all giving you...

-a hard looks.
-[people laughing]

[people mumbling and laughing]

[Arabic music continues]

-Mahmoud listen to me. I have--
-What does the past matter?

Let's drink to the future.

-To freedom regained.
-[Aladdin] To freedom.

[Mahmoud grunts]

Now, you have to tell me,

what I can do to repay you?

You can ask me
anything you want.

The only thing I desire apart
from seeing my family again...

Is to marry the girl
I fell in love with.

But that's an impossible dream.

Getting away from Namuna
seemed impossible too,

but you managed it.

Yes, but Shahrazad
is a princess.

To be worthy of her
I would have to be a prince.

And if you're not born one--

I'll help you,

if that's what you want.

Really? How?

How?

Your crest!

[Aladdin blowing and sighing]

-[Mahmoud grunting]
-[Aladdin sighs]

[Mahmoud pants and sighs]

[donkey braying]

[Aladdin] Look on
the bright side...

at least you are free.

[Aladdin laughs] Apart
from the smell of singed hair.

Can we change
the subject, please?

You still haven't told me

how I'm going
to become a prince.

Have you heard of the lamp
that makes all wishes come true?

Of course I know,

it's my little sister's
favorite story.

Well... it's not a story.

That lamp truly exists.

It's the reason why
Namuna was holding me prisoner.

She wanted me to tell her
where it's hidden.

And you said nothing
for ten years?

It would have been absolutely
no use to her anyway.

It can't make people
fall in love at will.

It can only give
material things.

[mystical music]

How do you know where it is?
Have you ever used it?

No.

But I know the person
who buried it.

A long time ago.

[crow cawing]
[mysterious music]

[crow cawing]

Is it much further?

-We're nearly there.
-[horses neighing]

Here it is.

[horse neighs]

[mysterious music ends]

There.

[Mahmoud sighing] Thank you!

-[Mahmoud sighs]
-[donkey braying]

[wind blowing]

Your there
beyond the border of desires.

I approach slowly and meekly.

So as not to shatter the fragile
porcelain of our dreams.

Beautiful.

-[donkey braying]
-[Mahmoud] Beautiful.

What dream did you have Mahmoud?

-[Mahmoud sighs]
-When you were a young.

Just one dream.

Ever since I was a boy.

Of finding a way
to make the arid land

of my village fertile.

And did you make it come true?

I had an opportunity to,

but I didn't seize it.
[emotional music]

In later years,

I've learned how to make
plants small, luxuriant.

How to obtain juicy fruit.

But to give life
to the Earth, no.

That cannot be invented.

It's either there or not.

So...

no, my dream didn't come true.

But tell me
about your Shahrazad.

She must be a very special girl.

She's very beautiful.

She is...

intelligent, cultured.

She is unique.

You're unique too.

Why do you think you have
to become a prince

to deserve her?

To have something to offer her.

Aren't you enough?

As a prince

I'd be able to bring her
to live in my castle.

Give her a life of luxury.

Buy her precious jewels.

Maybe I'm wrong.

[emotional music continues]

[Mahmoud sighs]
It depends on you.

The lamp gives you
only one chance.

If you want to be loved
for what you have...

and not for what you are.

What do you mean?

Just what I said.

[emotional music ends]

Where did you learn
to cook so well?

-My father was a cook.
-Really?

Where are you from?

Basrah.

That's why they called you Omar,
like the great Caliph.

I don't have pleasant
memories of that city.

Why not?

-[horse neighing]
-[crickets chirping]

[sighs] My father worked
at the Palace of the Lord.

One day someone stole
from the kitchens...

he was accused of it.

Of course he had nothing
to do with it.

He had always been
an honest man,

but his master
didn't believe him...

and he cut his hand off.

[emotional music]

Because of that injustice,

he lost his work,
the other people's trust...

and his dignity.

So.. one morning...

he went down to the rocks

and threw himself into the sea.

We never saw him again.

That was when I started stealing

to get revenge.

But it's never enough.

You'd better
get some sleep. [sighs]

Tomorrow we're living at dawn.

Why did you never tell me?

You never asked me.

What would you do
if Shahrazad succeeds?

Will you break up the gang?

Maybe.

When you found me...

I was fleeing a life
of loneliness and tyranny.

I didn't fall into that crack.

I threw myself into it.

But you saved me.

And you forced me to live.

The dignity
that you weren't able

to give back to your father...

you've given to me.

Whatever happens...

[emotional music ends]

I wanted you to know that.

[wind blowing]

[Aladdin sighs]

Mahmoud?

[mystical music]

Mahmoud?

[mysterious music]

Mahmoud!

[Aladdin panting]

He's gone.

Mahmoud!

[Aladdin panting]

[mysterious music ends]

[Jasmine] We're ready.

You're not coming with us.
Only Shahrazad and I are going.

-But how--
-You stay here.

Prepare the horses
and get ready to escape.

-[horse neighs]
-We'll make it.

It will protect you
from the wind.

[Omar] Let's go!

[mysterious music]

[crow cawing]

Let's split up.

It's all right. I'll be close.

[wind blowing]

[mysterious music continues]

[Shahrazad screams and pants]

[Shahrazad screams]

[Shahrazad panting]

[Omar] Are you all right?

I'm right here.

Be careful.

[Shahrazad sighs]

[mountain] Who are you?

My name is Shahrazad.

You are the first woman
whose dare to confront to me.

Why did you come up here?

To admire your beauty.

[mountain] Is that
the only reason?

Only for that?

Yes.

That is the only reason.

[mountain] To have
such a privilege,

you must answer a question.

Are you ready to try Shahrazad?

Yes, I'm ready!

[mountain] Listen...

can you tell me

who is the winding sovereign?

Who dwells where the first star of the evening rises.

And own three children
with fauna and flora

You can go
if you don't know the answer.

But beware...

if you give the wrong answer

you turn into a stone.

I'll give the answer.

And what did Shahrazad replied?

Go on.

I can't my Lord,

day has dawned
and you must kill me.

[suspenseful music]

You know I won't do it.

Every night you bewitched me
with your story.

And then you stop
at the key moment

to arouse my curiosity.

And to force me
to spare your life.

But don't fool yourself
clever lady.

Every story has an ending.

Even yours.

I'll grant you one more night.

Tomorrow, you die.

-Sharon.
-Princess.

Put my dress in the basket.

May God help you mistress.

[Namuna] May Shahrazad never
find her husband and again.

He'll not recognize her

and he'll kill her!

[emotional music]

[Aladdin grunts]

[Shahrazad sighs]

[Shahrazad sighs]

[Shahrazad gasps]

[Aladdin grunts]

You filled the room with stars.

Like Aladdin in your story.

All these candles.

How many have you lit?

One thousand.

Like the nights
that we have spent together.

In fact...

one thousand...

and one.

You're married.

Yes.

Why weren't you wearing
the ring before?

Because tomorrow...

it will be three years
since my wedding and I...

want to die.

Carrying the memory
of my husband to my grave.

Haven't you ever married?

No.

But yet the clothes
you're wearing.

What?

You only have tonight
left to finish your story.

Don't waste any more time.

Begin!

Shahrazad was thinking
about the mountain's riddle

that her life depended on.

[mountain] What is your answer?

[crow cawing]

If the sovereign is wind,

that means he can fly.

[mountain] That's not enough.

[wing blowing]

The first star
of the evening rises,

where the sun sets.

So his dwelling is to the west.

[mountain] That's not enough.

[mysterious music]

If he conceive children
with Fauna and Flora,

that means
they're animals or plants.

[mountain] I want the answer!

The wind sovereign,

that dwells to the West.

Is Zephyr,

the West Wind.

According to legend,

he first united
with an immortal harpy

with whom he had two sons...

horses.

Then he married Chloris,

the nymph of flowers.

And with her...

fathered Karpos,

fruit.

[mountain] Well done!
You've pass the test.

You deserve to admire my peak.

[Omar grunting]

[mysterious music continues]

[Shahrazad sighs]

[Shahrazad laughs]

[Omar grunts]

[mountain screams]
You betrayed me!

You didn't come here
to admire my charms

but to steal the emerald.

You'll die with him!

[Shahrazad panting]

[Omar] Come!

Come! [panting]

[Omar painting]

[Jasmine panting]

Jasmine!

Jasmine!

-Jasmine!
-No!

-[Jasmine screaming]
-Jasmine!

Jasmine!

[Jasmine moans and screams]

-She's going to die!
-[Jasmine] Go!

-[Omar] Hold on!
-Save yourselves.

[Jasmine] You'll kill us all!

-[Omar panting and grunting]
-[Jasmine moaning]

You'll get that emerald back!

-[Jasmine screaming]
-[Omar] I've got you!

-[Jasmine crying and moaning]
-[Omar] Come on!

[Omar grunting]

-[Omar grunting] Come on!
-[Jasmine grunting]

[Omar and Jasmine grunting]

[Jasmine panting and moaning]

[emotional music]

[Jasmine moans and laughs]

[Shahrazad sighing]

[Shahrazad] You gave up
the emerald.

But I've gained much more.

I am indebted to you.

You have found a brother in me.

So you can ask me
whatever you want

and I will do it.

The only thing I desire

is to return to Baghdad.

And look for Aladdin.

Now I know
I can win him back again.

But I promise you,
that we'll meet again.

Because our lives
are bonded forever.

[Omar] If you need us
you know where to find us.

[Shahrazad sighs]

Be safe.

[horse neighs]

[emotional music continues]

[Shahrazad] Driven by the hope
of finding Aladdin again,

Shahrazad galloped
towards Baghdad

while Aladdin abandoned
by the wise men,

had lost all hope
of finding the lamp.

[Aladdin sighs]

[Aladdin sighs]

The wise man must have left his.

A castle, a village.

Is the map to find the lamp.

[mysterious music]

Maybe that's the village
I have to find.

It's huge!

It must belonged
to a prince or a king.

[Mahmud] It's the castle
of lamp.

[Mania] Be quiet Mahmud.

The lamp
that makes wishes come true?

It made the castle long ago
but no one lives there.

-Why?
-It's damned.

-Is that Abakur?
-Yes.

There's no one here.
Where are the people?

-They're all digging.
-Digging?

Come on!

-Hey, stop!
-[man grunting]

You can't dig here!

Go to hell Habeeb,
I'll dig where I want.

Son of a dog that lamp is mine.

It belongs to the one
who finds it first.

-No!
-You animal!

Dad, stop it! Both of you.

-[woman] Please stop!
-[both grunting]

[Aladdin] Hey, stop it!

-[both grunting]
-[Aladdin] Stop it!

[man and woman scream]

Aren't you ashamed
of fighting like this

in front of your children?

Who do you think you are getting
involved in our business?

[Mahmud] His name is Aladdin,

he is here looking
for the lamp too.

How did you learn
about the lamp?

-Who told you?
-The wise man of Abakur.

[man panting]

You know Mahmoud Al Gin.

[Habeeb] It was the wise man
who found the magic lamp.

-Didn't he tell you?
-[goat bleats]

When he was Mahmud's age,

he was always digging
in the earth.

Trying to care for the few
buried plants that family had.

And one day he discovered
the lamp hidden in the soil.

So he took it out and started
wiping the earth of it.

And when he realized

that he could just
rub the lamp...

for his biggest wish
to come true,

he and his family

realized that they have
found a great treasure.

Mother, father!

[casual music]

[Habbeb] So they started
to use it,

to make
all of their dreams come true.

And they became more
and more ambitious.

While the other inhabitants
of their village went hungry.

Until someone decided
that the treasure...

had to be shared.

[mysterious music]

And the whole thing ended
in blood bloodshed.

In order to gain possession
of the lamp,

one of Hamoud's relatives killed

the wise man's father.

-It was an accident.
-He killed him.

[children screaming] Mahmud!

And the wise man?

He left a letter.

In which he said that the lamp

had been our downfall.

And that he had hidden it,
for all our good.

Then he vanished.

No one never knew where he went.

Only you...

can tell us that.

All I know
is that he brought me here

and then he left me.

[pig snorting]

He didn't tell you
where he hid the lamp?

No, he didn't tell me anything.

Excuse me,

do you know where shoemaker
called Aladdin lives?

He made these shoes.

[child] Jafar soldiers!

Jafar soldiers are coming,
watch out!

Jafar soldiers are coming!

[crowd screaming and panicking]

[soldier] Open up!

[man 2] No, please don't!

You can't take it!

That grain is all we have!

If you take it we'll starve.
Please give me!

[soldier] Orders
from calif Jafar.

Come with me.

Come!

[mother] We only have
a little semolina left.

-Where is Hilad?
-I don't know.

I told you not to go out alone.

If they find out who you are.

The neighborhood
is full of soldiers.

[Ali] The door!

Come in.

Have you eaten?

No.

[Ali] Please,
make yourself at home.

-[mother] Here.
-[Shahrazad] Thank you.

I have no way
of paying you back.

Don't worry.

-You're hungry.
-[Shahrazad laughs]

You're a shoemaker.

I was.

But ever since my son
went away...

along with the desire to live,

I lost the desire to work too.

Don't say that Ali.

Our son will come back.

How long has it been
since you last saw him?

Since the night
the calif Shahryar was killed.

[emotional music]

He had gone to ask for...

the princess's hand.

[sighs] But she rejected him.

Aladdin was so...

in love with her.

So he decided to go away,
to forget her.

If he knew she was dead.

[emotional music continues]

[Shahrazad sighing]

You're Shahrazad!

-The princess!
-[Ali sighs]

Why did you come here?

Aren't you content with the harm
you've done to our son?

[mother] Bitterness belongs
to the past.

Please...

stay here with us.

Now that you've come back...

Aladdin will come back too.

[emotional music ends]

[wind blowing]

Four hundred.

So...

three hundred paces
South of the castle.

And 100 steps...

from the stone wall.

It has to be that one.

[sighs] There are no others.

[casual music]

One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven--

Now, 100 steps to the East

[stammers] or was it to the East
of the village?

No, to the West of the castle.

So he has his back
to the village

or does he? No, no wait!

To the West, no to the East.
To the West.

[Mahmoud sighing]

[Aladdin] Five, six, seven,
nine-eight, nine-nine...

One hundred.

[Aladdin panting]

Here is the well.

It must be here. [pants]

[Mania] The wells
are all filled with sand.

How can they be washing them?

I saw one that wasn't filled.

How you going
to get down into it?

[Aladdin sighing]

[Mania] Are you
looking for the lamp?

What else
would I be looking for?

We're looking for water.

There isn't any?

Not a drop in the whole village.

Maybe if we found some...

they would stop fighting.

[Aladdin panting] Water
in the desert.

It sounds tough.

There's another well
on the other side of the wall.

Will you come and help us?

I don't have time now.

-[Aladdin panting]
-Come on Mania,

he's become like the others.

Let's leave him to his lamp.

[Aladdin grunts]

-[Aladdin sighing and panting]
-[Mania] Help!

[Mania panting] Help!

Mahmud has fallen into the well.

Help! [panting]

[Mania and Aladdin panting]

[Mania] Mahmud has fallen
into the well.

Get some help, quick! [panting]

[suspenseful music]

[Aladdin panting] Mahmud!

Mahmud!

[Aladdin grunts]

Mahmud!

[sighing and panting]

Mahmud!

[panting]

[grunting and panting]

[grunts and pants]

You're breathing, thank God.

Because of that damn lamp...

I left you
to risk your life alone.

Come on! [panting]

Where's that light coming from?
[panting]

[sighing and panting]

It was here.

[mysterious music]

[panting]

Take Mahmud
out of this well for me.

And then fill it
with spring water.

-[Habbeb] Mahmud!
-[woman] Mahmud!

[Aladdin] So that the people
of Abakur cultivate the land,

raise their flocks
and forget about you.

-[woman] Are you all right?
-I'm fine.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Come here, look!

There's water!

[man] Unbelievable!
It's a miracle!

-It's incredible!
-[woman 2] It's a miracle!

[woman] I can't believe it.

-Water!
-[Mahmud laughs]

[everybody laughing
and cheering]

-Hey!
-[Habeeb laughs]

Hey! Come on!

Come here! Hey!

Mahmoud. [laughs]

[Mahmoud laughs]

Come on!

I know, I surprisingly
mistook West for East

but if you turned round

in the right direction--

Which is the right direction?

[Aladdin stammers] I found it
anyway.

And where is it now?

I left where you hid it.

It's already
caused enough trouble.

You've given up on your desire.

You wanted to be a prince.

How you'll manage
with Shahrazad?

I get her to love me
for what I am.

And I'll give her what I have.

You're right,
even if a fine castle.

You can bring her
to live in ours.

Now that we have the water,

we need a lord
to govern the village.

[man] We like you!

Do you want to be the prince
of the castle of the lamp?

[everybody] Yes!
The prince of the lamp!

The prince of the lamp.

[mysterious music]

[horse snorts]

[horse neighs]

Excuse me!

Where has Ali
the shoemaker gone?

Why is his house been burned?

They ran away,

after the death of Shahryar
and the princess.

Dead?

That's not possible!
Shahrazad isn't dead.

But they found her body
in the river.

[Aladdin grunts]
[mysterious music ends]

You've become better than me.

A prince arrived
in the city today.

-Sonya saw him.
-He has a castle in Abakur.

They say his really rich.

I could sell him the boots.

[mother] Abakur
is one-day walkway.

Well, it's worth 50 riyals.

[Ali] It's useless,

our princess is her own
personal shoemaker.

I'll bet he'll buy my boots
as soon as he sees them.

[emotional music]

[Aladdin] I shouldn't ever
left them.

It's all my fault.

Where they are now?

-Hey.
-Or where she is.

[emotional music ends]

Forgive me, your majesty,
there's a woman on the gate

asking to being received.

She brought to you some boots.

[wind blowing]

They're beautiful.

Why don't you let her in?

[emotional music]

[Aladdin] Did you make
these boots?

Your majesty!

Yes sire, with my own hands.

They're very fine.

Who taught you to sew this way?

The father of the man I love.

What's his name?

Aladdin.

To see if you like them,
you should try them on.

If you grant me the honor
of putting them on your feet,

I'm sure you'll fall
in love with them.

[emotional music continues]

I fell in love with you
from the first time I saw you.

And I never forgot you.

And now...

I share tears of happiness,
my beauty.

Because I finally
found you again.

[emotional music crescendo]

-Oh, Aladdin!
-[Aladdin panting]

[Shahrazad] As long and painful
as wait had been,

so the reunion was sweat
and passionate.

Mother?

[mother and Aladdin sighing]

[mother sighing]

Ali!

-Ali!
-[Ali] What?

Sulima!

-[Ali sighing]
-[Sulima] Aladdin!

[Ali and Sulima sighing]

[children] Aladdin!

[Shahrazad] But there was still
one thing missing

to make their happiness
complete.

Aladdin and Shahrazad
wanted justice.

Freeing the town from the reign of Alyssa and Jafar.

Twenty at least on the square.

-And in the gate?
-Four.

They change every six hours.

Stop! What have you got there?

[man 2] What are you thinking
of doing?

To unmask them, we have
to lure them out of the palace.

[soldier] Go on, move!

You, give me some of them.

-[soldier] Get out of here.
-[man 3] Hey!

Hey, I know you.

Go away,

you're confusing me
with someone else. Go away.

But you are the one

who give me the boots.

Aladdin!

Get him! Go.

Come on!

[Aladdin grunts] Come on!

Back, get out of the way!

Go!

[Aladdin and soldiers grunting]

Let me go!

[crowd complaining
and screaming]

[soldier] Find him!

-Let me go!
-[crowd screaming]

They've capture the shoemaker.

I knew he'd come back
to look for her.

What we do with him?

Hang him.

He will act as a warning
to the people

seeing their hero hanging
from the gallows.

[suspenseful music]

[man 2] They are going
to hanging him two days

from now in the market square.

What can we do?

[man 2] It would take
an army to free him.

The square will be packed
with soldiers.

[Ali] It's impossible.

I know who can help us.

[suspenseful music]

-[Sharon] Hello soldier.
-[soldier 2] What do you want?

[Sharon] I put the wine
over there

that the calif
order me to bring

as a reward
from this morning's capture.

[soldier 2] He could send
some food while he was at it.

[Sharon] I thought of that.

It's all upstairs.

[soldier 2] Thank you.

Here.

-Who are you?
-A friend of the princess.

[crowd complaining and hooting]

[Ali] Be careful.

[crowd screaming]

[suspenseful music continues]

-[man 4] It's Aladdin!
-[crowd complaining]

Move it.

This way.

[crowd screaming
and complaining]

[Aladdin sighing]

-In the name of justice...
-[crowd hooting]

the accused is hereby charged

the murder of calif Shahryar,

and of his daughter Shahrazad.

And he's sentenced
to death by hanging.

[crowd hooting]

And the sentence
be carried out immediately.

[Aladdin grunts]

It wasn't Aladdin
who killed the cal Shahryar.

[crowd mumbling]

I was there
and I saw who killed him...

with my own eyes.

-Jafar and Alyssa!
-[people gasp]

How dare you accuse us?

Who are you?

[crowd gasping]

Shahrazad!

I'm the one who saw you plunge
the dagger to my father's back.

You idiot. Kill her!

-Get her.
-[crowd mumbling]

Get them!

[Omar grunting]

[screams]

[crowd screaming]

-[soldiers grunt]
-Hello princess.

[Jafar panting] Where you gonna
run to now?

[Aladdin panting and grunting]

[grunting]

This time
I'll make sure you die.

[Aladdin grunts]

-[Shahrazad screams]
-[Aladdin grunting]

-[Jafar screams]
-[Aladdin grunts]

[Jafar grunts]

[suspenseful music continues]
[Aladdin grunts]

[Jafar grunts]

[Alyssa panting]

Where do you think you're going?

[Alyssa sighing]

I wouldn't if I were you.

-Move it!
-[crow cheering]

Keep going. That's it.

[Ali laughing]

[emotional music]

[crowd cheering]

[crowd clapping]

My sweet Shahrazad,

I desired you from the first
moment I saw you.

But winning has been
a long undertaking.

Today,

you'll become my wife, at last.

Whatever happens, I promise...

that nothing and no one...

will ever part us again.

I too,

my sweet Aladdin

desired you from the moment
I first had my eyes on you.

But only after losing you...

that I realize
how much I loved you.

Today, our lives are being bound
together forever.

And nothing or no one...

will ever part us again.

[emotional music]

[crows cawing]

[mysterious music]

[crowd mumbling]
[suspenseful music]

What is that?

[crows cawing]
[crowd mumbling]

[crowd screaming]

[Namuna] You thought
you were rid of me Aladdin?

-[crowd mumbling]
-Namuna.

[Namuna] I told you that you
couldn't have another...

apart for me.

[Aladdin] You will never
have me!

Begone!

You are the one who begone.

May my hatred
keep you apart forever!

May Shahrazad never find
her husband Aladdin again.

And if she has does find him

he will not recognize her
and he will kill her!

-No!
-[crowd screaming]

[Namuna grunting]

-[crowd screaming]
-[crow cawing]

Aladdin!

Where she take him?

I'll never find him again.

[emotional music]

Hatred is strong,

but not strong as love.

Namuna has clouded his mind

but she has no power
over his feelings.

Your love is stronger
that her spell.

but if you manage
to rekindle in him

the love that unites you,

his heart will recognize it.

[Shahrazad] Shahrazad listened
to the wise man's words.

And she set off
to look for her husband.

She visited every village,

every castle
that she found along her path.

And after three years,

she finally found him.

And she lit a thousand candles

to light up his darkness.

But the witch curse...

were stronger
than her love and her faith.

[emotional music ends]

And he didn't recognize her.

And he kill her.

Just as you're about to kill me.

That how my stories ends.

He didn't recognize her,

but night after night...

Shahrazad won him over.

-Entrancing him
-[Shahrazad sighs]

with a wonderful story.

[emotional music]

He fell in love...

-all over again.
-[Shahrazad sighs]

-[Shahrazad sighs]
-And recognized...

his bride.

[Shahrazad moans]

[Mahmoud] And for that day on
they lived happily ever after.

But that's another story.

[suspenseful music]

I don't think so.

[suspenseful music ends]
