La Rosa di Bagdad (English: The Rose of Baghdad) is a 1949 Italian animated film by Anton Gino Domeneghini.

However, the tyrant Sheikh Jafar, and his shadow of a magician, Burk, have other plans, in order to take over Oman's kingdom.

After a lovely performance by Princess Zeila and her snake charmer friend Amin, a messenger attempts to give a proclamation, written by Oman's information minister, Tonko, to the princes from the three cities across the river.

The ministers attempt to find Amin's trail, but take a break at a crystal stream and drink the water there.

Vowing not to let Calina die in vain, Amin tears off part of a sleeping Burk's cloak, trying his best not to wake him up, and flies out of the palace.

The two engage in an air duel, and after Burk takes the torn part of his cloak back, Amin falls into a stream.

Amin arrives in time to save Zeila, and, with a little help from the genie, he uses his snake charmer's flute to lure Jafar and his guard to dance into the river.

Released in the U.S. at the same time as the animated Italian feature I Fratelli Dinamite, and inspired by The Arabian Nights, the story concerns a beautiful princess, a poor-but-honest hero, an evil sultan, and a slave of the lamp.

Reviewers in 1949 were taken by director Anton Gino Domeghini's clever choice of camera angles and by Riccardo Pick-Mangiagalli's musical score.
