Trama e commenti: cinematografo.it - kataweb.it - mymovies.it: «I quaranta ladroni sono ormai acqua passata: Ali Babà è un tranquillo vecchio che pensa all'avvenire del figlio Kashma, brillante cadetto dell'Accademia Militare di Bagdad. Ma il perfido Califfo trama e invia la bella Azura a circuire il giovane, del quale ovviamente lei s'innamora. Lieto fine».

Meanwhile, an evil Caliph kidnaps and enslaves an Arabian princess as part of his plan to steal Ali Baba's fabulous treasure. He then sends his new "slave' to Kashma's home. The Caliph tells the Shah, to whom the princess is betrothed, that Kashma has stolen her and that he will get her back. While staying with Kashma, the princess finds herself falling in love. When Kashma learns of the plot he and his buddies pick up their swords and begin trying to save her and retrieve his father's stolen treasure» (Sandra Brennan).
