The oldest surviving feature-length animation in cinema history, this spellbinding fantasy adventure tells the magical adventures of Prince Achmed and his enchanted flying horse as they journey across mystical lands to save the Princess Dinarsade from the clutches of a wicked sorcerer.
The film will be followed by a short collection of three other fairy-tale/silhouette films from the same director: Papageno (1935), The Frog Prince (1954), and Thumbelina (1954). The runtime is for the full programme.
Screening as part of Folklore for Families, a season exploring how myths, legends and folklore have been adapted into some of the best family films of all time.
