Hodja dreams of exploring the world, but his father expects him to inherit the family’s tailor shop. He finds an unexpected opportunity when he meets El Faza, an old rug merchant who gifts him a magical flying carpet. To earn the gift, Hodja must retrieve El Faza’s granddaughter, Diamond, from the bustling Sultan city of Pjort. However, El Faza is unable to travel himself due to a death sentence imposed by the Sultan, who believes he stole the ruler’s carpet. Navigating city life proves challenging for Hodja, and he relies on Emerald, a resourceful streetwise girl, to survive. Losing his carpet to the Sultan threatens his mission, leaving him facing an uncertain future.
