1974 / 130min / 35mm

The jocular, loose, slapstick-heavy final film in the Trilogy of Life, adapted from the anthology of Middle Eastern tales of the same name, removes the figure of the storyteller Scheherazade, instead connecting the various vignettes by way of a poor boy searching for his love, an escaped slave girl.
