Der Fuehrer's Face facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts


Der Fuehrer's Face is a famous World War II animated cartoon from 1943. It's also known as Donald Duck in Nutzi Land. In this cartoon, Donald Duck has a scary dream. He imagines living in Germany under the Nazi government.

In his dream, Donald is forced to work in a factory making weapons for the Nazis. The cartoon shows funny, exaggerated versions of real leaders from that time. These "Nutzis" play musical instruments as they march. For example, Benito Mussolini is on the bass drum, Hermann Göring plays the piccolo, and Hideki Tōjō is on the tuba. Heinrich Himmler plays the snare drum, and Joseph Goebbels is on the trombone.

The cartoon was made to show how silly and bad the Nazi regime was. It was a way to support the Allied forces during the war.
