Once upon a time there were two children brought up by the same woman: Azur, the son of a nobleman, and Asmar, the son of the nanny who tells them many enchanting stories. Their favourite is about the Djinn fairy waiting to be rescued by an heroic prince. One dark day fate cruelly separates them. Some years later Azur sets out to rescue the fairy only to be reunited with Asmar. And so begins the Princes' Quest – a fantastic adventure across magical, mythical lands and seas.

From acclaimed director Michel Ocelot (Kirikou and the Sorceress) comes a wondrous new animation aimed at the whole family. Azur & Asmar: The Princes' Quest will be released on UK DVD on 28th July 2008 by Soda Pictures at the RRP of £15.99. Special features will include featurettes with director Michel Ocelot and How to Make a Puppet.
