Answer: Der Fuehrer's Face (originally titled Donald Duck in Nutzi Land[2]) is a 1943 American animated anti-Nazi propaganda short film produced by Walt Disney Productions, created in 1942 and released on January 1st 1943 by RKO Radio Pictures. The cartoon, which features Donald Duck in a nightmare setting working at a factory in Nazi Germany, was made in an effort to sell war bonds and is an example of American propaganda during World War II.[3] The film was directed by Jack Kinney and written by Joe Grant Huemer.[4] Spike Jones released a version of Oliver Wallace's theme for the short before the film was released.
