Le court métrage se compose d'une série d'images fixes à l'encre et au fusain, inspirées des gravures médiévales, qui défilent sur un fond musical, et s'accélèrent au fil de l'histoire. La princesse du royaume, assise sur un trône élevé entouré par une foule nombreuse, reçoit la visite de nombreux prétendants princiers. Pendant la cérémonie, un pauvre bossu tente de parvenir jusqu'à elle afin de lui offrir un bouquet de fleurs, mais les autres prétendants le brutalisent sous les rires cruels de la foule. Il doit alors révéler le secret que dissimule sa bosse.

Dilili est une petite Française kanake qui participe au zoo humain de l'Exposition universelle dans le Paris de la Belle Époque. Orel, chauffeur de triporteur, se glisse dans l'enclos pour rencontrer Dilili, qui le retrouve le soir venu. Elle lui raconte son histoire : elle a à la fois des ancêtres européens et des ancêtres kanaks, elle a été éduquée par madame Michel (qui n'est autre que Louise Michel), puis à son arrivée à Paris, elle a rencontré une comtesse qui lui a appris les bonnes manières. Orel propose à Dilili de la promener dans Paris à bord de son triporteur pendant qu'il effectue ses livraisons. Enthousiaste, Dilili découvre les rues et places de Paris. Ils rencontrent Marie Curie, à qui Orel devait ramener sa fille Ève, puis la cantatrice Emma Calvé, amie d'Orel, qui aime chanter sur le lac souterrain qui s'étend sous l'opéra Garnier, ainsi que l'écrivain Marcel Proust en compagnie de son ami Reynaldo Hahn. La petite fille note sur son carnet les noms des célébrités qu'elle rencontre et qui lui donnent toutes sortes d'idées de métiers qu'elle aimerait faire plus tard. Très vite, Dilili est intriguée par les annonces des vendeurs de journaux : de petites filles sont régulièrement enlevées par un réseau de bandits qui signent leurs crimes du nom de « Mâles-Maîtres ». Dilili décide aussitôt d'enquêter pour retrouver les jeunes filles disparues. Elle-même victime d'une première tentative d'enlèvement dans un jardin public, elle est sauvée par Orel : il va falloir faire preuve de prudence.

In a little village somewhere in West Africa, a boy named Kirikou is born in a spectacular way. But he's not a normal boy, since he can speak and walk immediately after being born. He is also very determined. His mother tells him that an evil sorceress has dried up their spring and devoured all the males of the village except for one. Hence the tiny Kirikou decides to accompany the last warrior, his uncle, to visit the sorceress. Kirikou tricks the sorceress and saves his uncle, by waiting inside his uncle's hat, and pretending that it was magic. He saved the children from being kidnapped by the sorceress' boat, which sped off towards Karaba, and saved them later again from the sorceress' tree, which closed it branches, and once again sped off towards Karaba. Next, he bursts the monster who was drinking all the village's water. He then travels to ask his wise old grandfather about the sorceress, and faces many obstacles in the process. The grandfather finds that Kirikou is always asking questions, which is a good thing. The grandfather tells him that she is evil because she suffers: bad men put a poisoned thorn in her back. On the way to Karaba, Kirikou makes friends, who each in turn, give him presents, after he saves them from the skunk. Kirikou manages to trick the sorceress and removes the thorn, he also manages to take the gold, and return it to the rightful owners. The sorceress is cured. She kisses Kirikou and he becomes an adult. Love reigns. When they arrive back at the village, no one believes that the sorceress is cured, and only do they believe Kirikou, when a procession of drummers arrive. It turns out Karaba did not eat them, just turned them into watchmen, and other obedient objects.

It is said that somewhere, an enchanted princess lies captive in a secret palace – a palace you can be sure that you're getting close to if you find diamonds lying in the grass. But in order to free the princess from the curse placed upon her, one would have to find all one-hundred and eleven of the diamonds which make up her broken necklace. Many princes have attempted to break the spell, but all have disappeared without a trace.

The film is a sub-story to Kirikou and the Sorceress rather than a straight sequel. The movie is set while Kirikou is still a child and Karaba is still a sorceress. Like Princes et princesses and Les Contes de la nuit, it is an anthology film comprising several episodic stories, each of them describing Kirikou's interactions with a different animals. It is however unique among Michel Ocelot's films, not only in that it is co-directed by Bénédicte Galup (who has previously worked with him as an animator) but also for each of the stories being written by a different person (in all other cases, Ocelot has been the sole writer and director of his films).

Once upon a time there were two children nursed by Jénane: Azur, a blond, blue-eyed son of a nobleman, and Asmar, the tan skinned and dark-eyed child of the Jenane. The nurse tells them the story of the Djinn-fairy waiting to be released from her chamber by a good and heroic prince. Brought up together they are as close as brothers until the day Azur's father cruelly separates them, banishing the nurse and Asmar from his home and sending Azur away to the city to receive schooling from a personal tutor. Years later, Azur is haunted by memories of the legendary Djinn-fairy, and takes it upon himself to journey all the way to Asmar's homeland to seek it out. Now reunited, he finds that Jénane has since become a successful merchant, while Asmar is now a member of the Royal Guard. However, Asmar also longs to find the Djinn-fairy, and only one of the two youths can be successful in their quest.
