Bilgi :Ali Baba, son of the Kalif of Bagdad is brought up by the 40 Thieves after his father is killed by the soldiers of Hugalu Khan, who received the necessary information by traitor Cassim. Ali becomes the leader of the thieves and they are fighting for the freedom of his land. Per chance Ali captures the fiancée of Hugalu Khan, who turns out to be his girl friend Amara. After a few misunderstandings Ali uses her wedding day with Hugalu Khan as the day for the liberation of Bagdad.
After the conquest of the Arab caliphate of Bagdad by the unstoppable conqueror Hugalu Khan's devastating Mongol hordes, caliph Hassan is killed when Prince Cassim betrays him, hoping in vain to prevent a bloody revolt, but the legal heir Ali, a minor, escapes and finds the secret of Sesame, the magical desert cave of the forty robbers. When the band finds Ali and sees he has the imperial seal, their headman old Baba virtually adopts the brave boy under the name of Ali Baba; the next ten years they are the only true resistance against the Mongolian oppression. When they tempt to plunder the caravan which brings the tyrannical khan his beautiful bride Amara, daughter of prince Cassim -the present grand vizier-, who as child mixed her blood with Ali's, she -masquerading as her handmaiden- tricks Ali so Mongolian horse guards can capture him; he is delivered for public execution in Bagdad, even after Cassim sees his royal seal, but the other robbers free him and abduct Amara. Her loyal, patriotic servant Jamiel joins Ali and wins his trust for an alliance against the khan, demanding Cassim's life for hers; the princess has Ali's heart and is released on his orders anyway, even before she learns the truth about Ali and reconsiders her betrothal, Ali devises another ploy...
In Baghdad, in the days of the Mongol invasion lead by the cruel Hugalu Khan, the caliph Hassan is betrayed by Prince Cassim and killed by the Mongols. His son Ali, who had just pledged love to Prince Cassim's daughter Amara, escapes and accidentally finds the magic cave Sesame, the hiding place of forty thieves leaded by Baba. Ali is adopted by Baba, who assigns the strong Abdullah to protect him. For ten years, the Mongols held Baghdad, and Ali Baba becomes the leader of the forty thieves, now beloved by the population for challenging the invaders. When the thieves acknowledge that a caravan is bringing Lady Amara to marry the tyrant Hugalu Khan, Ali Baba meets her bathing and does not recognize her. The Mongols capture him and he believes she betrayed him. Amara's servant Jamiel helps Ali Baba, and the thieves rescue him in Baghdad and abduct Amara. In the garden of Prince Cassim's garden, they have recollections of their childhood, but they do not recognize each other. When Ali finds the truth, he fights for his love and for the freedom of Baghdad.
