What Arabian Nights: The Adventures of Sinbad is

You're a calligrapher's apprentice in Baghdad, dreaming of faraway isles. But a dying sailor's map sets you adrift with a stowaway prince. Soon you’re evading cyclops, sand dragons, and the ire of a dark wizard. The film's cel animation, bold color schemes, and monster designs borrow freely from mentor Sanae Yamamoto's earlier work. It lingers on the visual imagination.
