In response to shortages during the late months of 1941, the Treasury Department sought assistance from Walt Disney to introduce extensive new tax initiatives.

This production, The New Spirit, received an Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary, prompting the creation of a follow-up film, The Spirit of ’43, just in time for the subsequent tax season.
