gifts from his Latin American amigos, José Carioca, the parrot,
and Panchito, the Mexican charro rooster. Donald unwraps a 16mm projector

"The Flying Gauchito," about a racing donkey with wings; "Baia,"
in which Donald and José go to Baia, meet a cookie girl, and dance;
and "La Piñata", in which Donald learns of Las Posadas, the
children's procession before Christmas, and finds friendly shelter and
the breaking of the piñata. Interspersed throughout the film is
live-action footage of native dancing and Latin American songs. |
