Aquarela do Brasil (1942)
A short cartoon in which an American humanoid duck named Donald Duck meets a Brazilian humanoid parrot named José Carioca. The latter shows the wonders of his country to the former. The narrative is situated at one remove from the spectator, as the latter views a hand with a paintbrush draw the images on the screen. The levels of diegesis are deliberately confused, e.g., the water or a river is used as ink by the painter.
