Burton is a collection of folk tales and stories originating from the Arabian Nights, translated in the late 19th century.

However, their desire to rule leads to conflicts and rivalry amongst them, sparking their journey to seek an arbitrator among other Sultans. The scene sets up the foundation for a saga filled with clever resolutions and intriguing moral quandaries. As each character interacts, the tales explore the intricacies of human motives and relationships, showcasing Burton’s dedication to preserving the original stories' spirit while providing rich commentary and translation.
