The video tutorial discusses constructing a binary search tree from a preorder traversal. It begins with an introduction to the concepts of binary search trees and preorder traversal. The tutorial then explores three different methods for constructing the tree: a manual approach, a recursive solution, and an efficient stack-based solution. The stack-based approach is highlighted as the most effective due to its optimal time complexity. The video concludes with a detailed code implementation of the stack-based solution.
