This is an original folded 47" x 36" Egyptian
poster designed by Farag for the 1952 Youssef Maalouf film Amal
starring Shadia [1931-2017] as Amal. Plot summary from studio film program:
"Hussein belonged to an old family in Alexandria and went to Cairo now
and then. He knew the dancer Soheir, loved her and married her
without telling his family, in order not to anger them. He chose a
house for her in Cairo and made a habit of visiting her there from day
to day. After months passed Soheir gave birth to a child named
'Widad.' When Hussein learned about this he went quickly from
Alexandria to witness the birth, which was difficult in a way. After
he was assured of the health of mother and child he arranged to return
to Alexandria and to explain the matter to his family. He believed it
would be easy to persuade his father to accept Soheir into the family,
since he was his only son and because his father would be sympathetic
to the little granddaughter. However fate was unkind to the wife and
her daughter. Hussein's automobile turned over in a horrific
accident. As a result he was taken to the hospital and there his
uncle came to see him, since the father was bedridden. Hussein told
his uncle about the secret marriage and then died. The uncle, named
Amr, saw what was coming, because with the death of Hussein he would
be the sole heir to his brother's enormous fortune were it not for the
unexpected marriage. He therefore decided to make plans to make
himself the sole heir of the enormous wealth; he was was encouraged by
his wife Doria to carry out this evil plan, and the child Amal became
an orphan. He turned her over to the costodian of the estate. The
years went by and Amal became a lively, vigorous girl, but she lived
like a stranger in her own house, an abject person in her own land.
Was she destined to know her origins? Was she destined to win her
beloved? You will find out in the film."
