      First movie for Faten Hamama as "Shirley Temple of Egyptian Cinema"

      It was 1938 when Mohamed Karim (Pioneer of Egyptian Cinema) started to consider working in this movie with famous musician Mohamed Abdelwahab. He introduced Faten Hamama in this movie and started to increase her role after he noticed her talent. He felt that this girl would be something in this industry.

      Her nickname after this movie was "Shirley Temple of Egyptian Cinema". Except that she continued to act and still acting until today, and she became the most famous actress in the history of Egyptian Cinema.

      When we see this movie today after 65 years of it's original production, we could only remember Mohamed Abdelwahab and Faten Hamama. We don't recall who was the lead actress in the movie.
