Prince Aladdin (Kev Adams) is bored at the palace. His old life as an adventurer is missing and he does not feel legitimate in his luxurious clothes of a monarch. Shah Zaman (Jamel Debbouze), a ruthless dictator who decided to marry the Princess Shallia (Venessa Guide [fr]), seizes Baghdad and the palace. Aladdin is forced to flee and recover his former genie. This is his only chance to save his princess and deliver Baghdad. Taking advantage of the absence of his rival, Shah Zaman will try everything to crack the princess; from intimidation to seduction, he will stop at nothing to become her husband. After a long journey full of pitfalls, Aladdin is finally back in Baghdad where he will have to face armed guards, the men of Richelieu, a bad genie in the pay of Shah Zaman, and Shah Zaman himself. He will above all have to fight an obstacle which he did not expect: the doubts of the princess.
