22''Frozen'' is Creator/{{Disney}}'s 53rd entry in its [[Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon animated canon line-up]], an original story that's inspired by Creator/HansChristianAndersen's longest FairyTale, ''Literature/TheSnowQueen'', using 3D computer-generated imagery.

24Queen Elsa (Creator/IdinaMenzel) and Princess Anna (Creator/KristenBell) are the royal sisters of the pseudo-Scandinavian kingdom of Arendelle. On the day of Elsa's coronation as queen, her DarkSecret is revealed to the world: she [[PowerIncontinence uncontrollably]] [[AnIcePerson conjures up snow and ice from thin air]]. As Elsa flees to the North Mountain to start a new life alone, she [[PowerIncontinence unknowingly]] unleashes a potentially EndlessWinter on the kingdom. Now Princess Anna teams up with rugged mountain man Kristoff (Creator/JonathanGroff), his pet reindeer Sven ([[AllAnimalsAreDogs who acts like a dog]]), and [[{{Snowlems}} singing snowman]] Olaf (Creator/JoshGad), to track down Elsa, hoping she will return the summer to Arendelle.
