In the Kingdom of Arendelle, the king and queen
have two daughters: the elder, named Elsa, and the younger, named Anna. Elsa
was born with a power to create and manipulate snow and ice, but Arendelle is
not a place where magic is valued.
One night Anna wakes Elsa wanting to play. Elsa
allows herself to be persuaded when Anna suggests building a snowman. Elsa
turns the ballroom into a winter playground, complete with a snowman she calls
Olaf. The girls play gleefully until Anna makes a leap Elsa wasn't prepared for
and the blast of power meant to create a pile of snow hits Anna in the head,
knocking her out and turning several strands of her hair white. The king and
queen rush both girls to a group of trolls in the kingdom's mountains.
The troll's leader, Pabbie , says Anna can be
saved. However, he advises the family that it might be best to not have Elsa
use her powers around Anna, and manipulates Anna's memories so she has no
knowledge of her sister's powers, remembering only the fun they've had. Pabbie also
explains that Elsa's powers will grow, and can prove a danger if she cannot
learn to control them.
The girls' parents then separate the two, and
having no memory of what has occurred, Anna is unable to comprehend why her
sister is not allowed to play with her. She often comes to Elsa's closed door
and tries to coax her out by asking, "Do you want to build a
snowman?" As a further precaution, the sisters are also kept from leaving
the castle.
While Anna's life is dull but normal, Elsa's
powers grow stronger as she matures. Her father cautions her to wear gloves to
keep her icy magic in check, and to conceal her feelings, because strong
emotions seem to cause her powers to manifest in unexpected ways.
A few years later, the teen-aged princesses lose
their parents to a storm at sea. Anna goes again to Elsa's door, pleading for
consolation from her only remaining family member. But Elsa, though she sits
sadly on the the other side of the door, refuses to communicate with Anna.
Three years after the death of their parents,
Elsa comes of age, and the castle prepares to crown her as the kingdom's queen.
Elsa is nervous about emerging from her seclusion and receiving the many
guests. When she gives the order to open the castle gates, Anna eagerly rushes
out into the city. While falling into a boat, she meets a handsome prince, Hans
of the Southern Isles .
Elsa remains nervous during the coronation
ceremony. The bishop has to remind her to remove her gloves before she takes up
her golden orb and scepter. Holding them, she turns to face the congregation,
but almost immediately she sees the gold is turning to ice. She returns the orb
and scepter hurriedly to the bishop and puts her gloves back on.
At the coronation ball, Anna and Elsa share their
first words face-to-face in many years. At first things appear to be going
well, and then Elsa is asked by the duke of Weselton to dance. The duke is a
buffoon, but an important trading partner. Elsa declines and has Anna go in her
place.
After dancing with the duke Anna takes the floor
with Hans, who dances beautifully, and then they go off to talk. Hans tells how
he is the youngest of 13 brothers, and as the two talk further, they seem to
have much in common. Hans soon proposes to Anna, and she eagerly agrees.
Returning to the ballroom, they ask Elsa to bless
the marriage, but Elsa grows distraught and will not agree. She asks the guests
to leave, setting Anna off on a tirade at her sister, who now not only seems
distant emotionally, but also seems intent on keeping her from happiness.
Unable to contain her emotions, Elsa makes a
violent sweep with her arm, causing a barrier of sharp icicles to appear.
Shocked at the room's reaction to her powers, Elsa rushes from the room,
through the city, and across the waters of the fjord, where her feet cause ice
to form. She flees far into the mountains, leaving winter in her wake.
Anna calls after her sister, but as she, Hans,
and the other guests watch, the waters of the fjords completely ice over, and
the air takes on an icy chill.
The Duke of Weselton fears that Elsa is an evil
sorceress (it's starting to snow) and wants to hunt her down, but Anna proposes
a solution: she will find her sister, and get her to stop the snow and ice.
Leaving Hans in charge of the kingdom, she takes off on horseback as the snow
intensifies.
Meanwhile, Elsa has found her way to a high
precipice on the kingdom's North Mountain. It is here she realizes that far
away from what she was taught, being on her own, she can begin to control her
powers! She constructs an elaborate ice palace, changes her confining wardrobe
into a shimmering dress, and vows to stay in seclusion, where she feels she can
be herself, and harm no one else.
Anna's pursuit is hindered when her horse is
spooked and rushes off. Noticing some smoke nearby, she finds a small trading
post run by a man named Oaken .The trading post has very little winter gear
(it's supposed to be the off season). As she is about to leave, a mountain man
named Kristoff appears, wanting to buy supplies. (It's the ice-cutter boy, all
grown up.) When the topic turns to the weather, Kristoff says the cold seems to
be coming from the North Mountain. Kristoff and Oaken have an altercation over
the drastic increase in the prices of the items Kristoff needs, and Oaken
throws Kristoff out into the snow.
Kristoff and his reindeer Sven take refuge in a
barn on Oaken's property, but are soon met by Anna, who has bought Kristoff's
supplies for him, on condition he take her up the North Mountain immediately.
Kristoff eventually agrees, and the two head off
into the night, Sven pulling the sled. As the discussion turns to Anna and her
sister, Anna explains about her whirlwind engagement, which causes Kristoff to
question the wisdom of getting engaged to someone she met that day. However,
the sled is soon surrounded by wolves. They escape by leaping a chasm, but lose
the sled. Kristoff is at first upset that his sled is gone, but is willing to
help Anna keep going, worried for her safety. Anna promises she will replace
the sled.
After some wandering, the two encounter a
beautiful frosted glen and a talking snowman named Olaf. Anna recognizes Olaf's
design as being similar to one Elsa made when they were young. Anna and
Kristoff tell how they want to find Elsa to bring back summer, and Olaf
suddenly grows excited; it's his dream to see what summer is like. The two do
not reveal what summer will mean for him, but follow him as he leads them to
Elsa's ice palace.
Meanwhile in the city, where Hans is providing
shelter and help for Arendelle's people, Anna's horse returns, riderless. Hans
asks for volunteers to join him in bringing Anna back. The Duke of Weselton
volunteers his two bodyguards, and secretly tells them to take care of Elsa if
they should encounter her.
At the Ice Palace, Anna asks Elsa to reverse the
artificial winter. Elsa is surprised to learn that her entire kingdom is
frozen, and Anna is surprised in turn to learn that Elsa doesn't know how to
stop it. But Anna insists her sister's powers are no reason why they should be
so distant. However, Elsa flashes back to their childhood and grows scared,
demanding Anna leave.
Elsa retreats to the upper portion of the palace,
and Anna follows her, pleading with her sister that they can solve this problem
together. But Elsa grows so upset that she unleashes an icy chill, of which a
portion strikes Anna in her heart.
Realizing she has hurt her sister again, but
desperate to be left alone so she won't be able to do it any more, Elsa creates
an enormous ice creature, Marshmallow. It chases Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf out
of the palace. After their escape, Kristoff notices that Anna's hair has
started to turn white. Fearful that she may be injured, Kristoff takes her to
his family...who happen to be a group of rock trolls -- the same ones that saved
Anna many years before. Kristoff explains that as he had no family at a young
age, the trolls took him and Sven in.
The trolls are overjoyed to meet Anna, and at
first they eagerly believe that she is Kristoff's girlfriend. However, he tells
them that she is injured and needs their assistance. Just as he did years
before, Pabbie comes forward and examines Anna, but concludes that this time
her sister's powers struck her in the heart. Pabbie cannot save her; Anna's
heart has begun to freeze. Pabbie says "an act of true love can melt a
frozen heart." Anna quickly tells Kristoff that Hans can surely help, and
they take off for Arendelle.
Meanwhile, Hans and his party have reached Elsa's
palace. At first menaced by her snowman bodyguard Marshmallow, the duke's
bodyguards charge into the palace and corner Elsa. As they attempt to kill her
with crossbows, she begs them to leave her alone, but they continue to attack
her. She threatens to kill them, trapping one with icicles and fending the
other off before Hans intervenes. Then one of the bodyguards sends an icy
chandelier crashing down, knocking her out.
Elsa awakens in a prison cell in Arendelle, her
hands chained and encased in steel mitts. As she looks out over the frozen
kingdom, Hans appears, telling Elsa that Anna has not returned, and pleads with
her to stop the winter. Elsa claims she can't, and must be let go to keep
others from being harmed.
Meanwhile, Kristoff and Sven arrive at the
castle. Anna's condition has grown worse, a chill coursing through her, and
more of her hair has turned white. Several of the castle staff escort her in;
she looks back as Kristoff and Sven leave. Anna is brought to Hans and tells
him that he has to kiss her in order to save her.
The castle staff in the room quickly leave to give
them privacy. Hans places Anna in a chair, leans in as if to kiss her... and
says "if only there was someone here who loved you!" As Anna looks at
him in shock, Hans explains that as the youngest of 13 brothers, he had no
chance at claiming his family's throne, so he went looking for a royal family
he could marry into. Unable to get to Elsa, he made Anna's acquaintance and
played on her naivete. He intended to marry her before causing some form of
"accident" for Elsa that would clear his path to the throne.
However, given Anna's current condition, he plans
to simply let her frozen heart overcome her, then kill Elsa, ending the eternal
winter. Anna tries to stop Hans, but he extinguishes the fire in the nearby
fireplace before locking her in the room. It is then that Anna collapses, her
hair now completely white.
Hans goes to speak with the duke of Weselton and
several other dignitaries. He claims that Elsa has caused Anna to freeze to
death, but before she died he and Anna recited their wedding vows. This
apparently is enough to give him full authority to declare Elsa guilty of
treason and sentence her to death.
The palace guards go to Elsa's cell, but are
detained when a wall of the cell collapses, and it is shown that Elsa has
escaped into the cold.
Meanwhile, far from Arendelle, Kristoff and Sven
are trekking away when Sven urges Kristoff to go back. Kristoff claims he has
no need to, but as they look back at Arendelle, a mysterious swirling cloud of
snow begins to engulf the kingdom. The two then take off towards the growing
danger.
Olaf has managed to find Anna in the locked room,
and seeing her freezing, quickly lights a fire in the fireplace. Anna explains
that Hans wasn't her true love, and that Olaf should leave or he'll melt.
However, the little snowman says he will not leave her side until he finds an
act of true love that can save her. As they talk, Olaf recalls how Kristoff did
so much to get her back to save her, when the wind blows a window open. Olaf
goes to close it, but in the distance he sees Kristoff and Sven charging
towards them.
This gives Anna hope. She realizes that they're
in love: maybe Kristoff can save her. Olaf helps her up, but in the hallway,
ice springs up to block their path. Going out a window, the two slide down the
castle's steep roofs. Anna attempts to make her way across the icy fjord, with
Olaf close behind. However, as the wind picks up, Olaf is blown away, and Anna
finds her hands beginning to turn to ice! Even so, she continues to move
forward, calling out Kristoff's name.
Meanwhile, Hans has found Elsa wandering the ice
of the fjord. Thinking he's come for her, Elsa tells him to leave her alone,
and take care of Anna. Hans lies and says that Anna was killed by Elsa's magic.
The pain of this causes Elsa to collapse, the snow in the air suddenly hanging
in stillness.
The clearing of the whiteout enables Kristoff to
see Anna, and he runs to her, but as Anna looks around, she sees Hans about to
stab Elsa. Even with her own life at stake, Anna rushes in front of Hans, blocking
the knife. As she does so, her frozen heart finally consumes her, turning her
into a statue of ice, and shattering Hans' blade.
Upon seeing Anna turned to ice, Elsa breaks down
in tears, hugging her sister. No one is sure what to say, when Anna's icy form
begins to change and gain color, and she returns to normal! Anna broke her own
spell: saving Elsa was an act of true love.
It is then that Elsa realizes what can end the
winter: love. And with this realization, she dissipates the ice and snow, and
summer returns to the kingdom. Olaf is found, and Elsa forms a small
"flurry" above his head, which lets him survive the summer heat.
In the aftermath, Hans is taken back to his
kingdom by another of the royal guests, who promise to see he is punished for
his crimes against the royal family of Arendelle. The duke of Weselton is as
hotheaded as ever, and given his attitude, it is decreed that trade between
Arendelle and Weselton shall be severed.
Meanwhile, Anna makes good on her promise and
replaces Kristoff's sled. She also makes him the castle's official ice
deliverer. Kristoff is so grateful that he kisses her.
Having come to grips with her powers and learning
they can be a blessing and not a curse, Elsa uses them to create a wintry
spectacle in the summer sky. She also turns the castle's courtyard into an ice
rink, where she informs Anna that the gates to the castle will never be closed
again. With the city's people in attendance, the sisters skate around the rink,
happy that they are finally together again.
Who’s actress that i love in the movie ?
Princess Anna
Princess Anna of Arendelle is the protagonist in
animated feature film Frozen. She is the spunky, fearless and
innocently-awkward younger sister of the powerful Snow Queen Elsa and embarks
on a perilous journey to save her kingdom from an eternal winter. Anna is more
daring than graceful and, at times, can act before she thinks. But she's also
the most optimistic and caring person you'll ever meet. can be rather
impulsive, but holds a lot of innocence to her, nonetheless. Anna is also a pure,
far from weak, optimistic, awkward and far from elegant. That the reason why i
love this character more than elsa.
