'A cold-hearted queen of the frozen north... steals away young Kay and takes him to her ice palace. Kay's friend Gerda gets worried when Kay does not come home, and so she sets out to find him. Along the way, she meets an eccentric flower woman, a prince and a princess, a magical reindeer, a talking court raven, and many other fantastic characters. Once Gerda discovers that Kay is in the Snow Queen's palace, she has to find some way to save him in spite of the formidable queen.' -- Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Of Interest: Hayao Miyazaki, director of Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, claims this is the movie which inspired him to continue his career as an animator when he was on the point of giving up, and that it was a significant influence on his work.
