Deserto che vive

When originally released to theaters in 1953, this 69-minute feature film was double billed with Walt Disney's 21-minute cartoon short Il mio amico Beniamino (1953), as a 90-minute package deal. This and "Ben and Me" were the first to be released by Buena Vista Film Distribution Company (now Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures). RKO Radio Pictures continued to distribute Disney's cartoons until 1956; they would shut down a year later.

Edited into The Best of Walt Disney's True-Life Adventures (1975)
