COMEDY. Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Snow Queen.” To defeat Mother Nature and cover the world with ice and snow for all eternity, the Snow Queen kidnaps Kay and holds her prisoner at her ice palace. If Kay can’t solve an ice puzzle in 24 hours, her heart will freeze solid, and with it, the world. In the meantime, Kay’s best friend, Gerda, sets out on a journey to rescue Kay from the Snow Queen’s icy clutches. Along the way, Gerda meets up with a witch who is horrible at casting spells, a penguin who’s an aspiring standup comedian, a band of robbers, and even a couple of Vikings. But in the end, only love will melt the Snow Queen’s icy reign of terror.
