2022坎城影展 獨來獨往的艾莉西亞博士滿足於理性行事、了無牽掛的生活。她利用前往伊斯坦堡參加會議的空檔，在歷史悠久的大市集買了一樣紀念品，卻意外喚醒受困上千年的古老精靈。一如所有阿拉丁神燈的故事，她必須說出三個願望才能讓精靈重獲自由，但身為神話學者的艾莉西亞深知，每個願望實現的背後總是附帶不堪的下場，許願可不是這麼簡單的事。於是精靈向艾莉西亞訴說自己亙古以來的冒險經歷，一場漂流三千年的魔幻旅程自兩人的對話間展開，這個神奇的夜晚，艾莉西亞也將面對心底最深層的渴望。 《瘋狂麥斯：憤怒道》導演喬治米勒睽違七年最新力作，改編自英國知名作家A·S·拜厄特小說《夜鶯眼中的惡靈》，集合蒂妲史雲頓、伊卓瑞斯艾巴兩大神級卡司，以全新科技與思維翻轉《天方夜譚》傳奇，坎城影展首映即大獲好評，全場起立鼓掌達六分鐘之久，堪稱年度最受期待的話題鉅獻。 Dr. Alithea Binnie is an academic - content with life and a creature of reason. While in Istanbul attending a conference, she happens to encounter a Djinn who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom. This presents two problems. First, she doubts that he is real and second, because she is a scholar of story and mythology, she knows all the cautionary tales of wishes gone wrong. The Djinn pleads his case by telling her fantastical stories of his past. Eventually she is beguiled and makes a wish that surprises them both.
