CAIRO — For the first time, an Egyptian song has appeared in a Marvel Studios movie.
"Atshan Ya Zeina" ("I’m Yearning, Zeina"), a song by the Egyptian alternative band Gawy, is part of the soundtrack of the American superhero movie “Black Widow” starring Scarlett Johansson. The film was released this month.
"Black Widow," based on the Marvel comic of the same name, is screening in US and Egyptian movie theaters and other cinemas worldwide.
The song, part of which is used in the background of a scene in the movie, tackles the story of a lover conversing with and blaming his beloved, symbolically intended to be his troublesome homeland.
