The film was Allegro Non Troppo and it screened here in the USA. I don't know about Disney's suit but it stills sells in DVD form here (I recently bought it from Amazon). It's a classic, satyrical ripoff of Fantasia. They even allude to Disney (by the use of the name Prisney) in the live portions. Very (as in ridiculously) low budget but still a classic.
