What happens

Little Hiawatha (also called Hiawatha) is a 1937 Silly Symphonies animated short film produced by Walt Disney, inspired by the poem The Song of Hiawatha by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The short does not appear to have historical correlation to legendary Mohawk leader and peacemaker Hiawatha. It was the last Silly Symphonies short to be released by United Artists.
