Piconzé is a 1973 Brazilian animated film written and directed by Ype Nakashima. It's the first color animated Brazilian feature film.

Plot

The story is set in a village called Green Valley, where Piconzé lives with his friends: Papo Louro the parrot and Chico Leitão the pig. When Gustavo Bigodão kidnaps Maria Esmeralda, Piconzé's girlfriend, the three set off to the rescue. Along the way, they encounter a dragon and a witch, crossing the kingdom of Saci.[3]

gollark: And speaking of the main characters, again they are badly written and flawed. Right from the start they are portrayed as a group of bumbling fools that mess up at every turn. It is really hard to believe that these clowns had the brains to build a time machine.

gollark: I know, I was just saying how nonspurious it was.

gollark: People mow lawns when they are too long. Grass grows when sunny. QED.

gollark: That's not spurious, that seems totally related.

gollark: That one is in memeCLOUD™, I think.
