Discotek Media has officially announced that it will release on Blu-ray Eiichi Yamamoto's A Thousand and One Nights (1969). The release will be available for purchase on November 24.
Description: The water-seller Aldin is poor, but happy and free; when he encounters the slave girl Miriam, he decides to share his freedom (and much more!) with her, stealing her away from her owner. But fortune doesn't smile on this star-crossed couple, and before he knows it Aldin is framed for murder, his freedom gone. He loses everything in prison, and so when he's released, he sets off on a world-spanning adventure, robbing the storied Forty Thieves, testing his mettle against an island of beautiful and savage women, encountering giants, genies, and just maybe, his long-lost child.
Based on tales from the classic Arabian Nights, directed by the great Eiichi Yamamoto, and conceived by the legendary Osamu Tezuka (Cleopatra: Queen of Sex), A Thousand and One Nights is a true anime classic, and the world's first animated feature film crafted for adult sensibilities.
