Intisar al-Shabab (1941) watch online

Intisar al-Shabab (Arabic: نتصار الشباب, lit. 'The Victory of Youth, or The Triumph of Youth') is an Egyptian film released in 1941. It was the first film featuring sibling actor-singers Asmahan and her brother Farid al-Atrash, the latter of whom composed all the songs in the film. Al-Atrash presented the operetta-within-a-film ليلة في الأندلس (“A Night in Andalusia”), the first of several lyrical theatre pieces in Egyptian cinema, including text from poet Ahmed Rami quoted from The Barber of Seville. The operetta includes two acts with four scenes and features music in the maqam of Ajam.

When the film was shown in southern Syria in 1941, the Druze tribal men shot rifles at the screen in reaction to seeing actress Asmahan, who came from a noble Druze family, shown in the film in make-up and dressed in Western-style clothing.
