Elsa, princess of Arendelle, possesses the ability
to create ice and snow. One night while playing, she accidentally injures her
younger sister Anna. The king and queen seek help from trolls, who heal Anna
and remove her memories of her sister's magic. In order to protect Elsa and
keep her powers a secret, the royal family locks themselves away in their
castle. Elsa, afraid of hurting Anna again, spends most of her time hiding in
her room, creating a rift between the two sisters through their adolescence,
which is further strained after their parents die at sea during a storm.
Three years later, the people of Arendelle prepare
for Elsa's coronation ceremony. Among the dignitaries is the Duke of
Weselton, a tradesman who wants to exploit the kingdom for profit. Excited
that the castle's gates will finally open to the public, Anna explores the
town and meets Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, with the pair quickly
developing a mutual attraction for each other. Elsa's coronation goes off
without incident, and the two sisters begin to bond again at the reception.
During the reception, Hans proposes to Anna, who hastily accepts. Elsa,
however, refuses to grant her blessing on the marriage, setting off an
argument between the sisters, which culminates in Elsa's abilities being
exposed to the guests.
Panicked, Elsa flees, inadvertently unleashing an
eternal winter on the kingdom in the process. Free of her secret and far from
Arendelle, she builds herself an ice palace and unknowingly brings to life
hers and Anna's childhood snowman, Olaf. Anna sets out in search of Elsa,
determined to return her to Arendelle, end the winter, and mend their
relationship. While getting supplies, she meets mountain man Kristoff and his
reindeer Sven. Anna convinces Kristoff to guide her to the North Mountain in
search of her sister. The group encounters Olaf who leads them to Elsa's
hideaway.
Anna and Elsa are reunited, but while Anna tries to
persuade her elder sister to return, Elsa still harbors fears of hurting
Anna. Elsa becomes agitated and accidentally strikes Anna in the heart with
her powers. Desperate to get Anna to leave, Elsa creates a giant snow
creature that throws them out. As they flee, Kristoff notices that Anna's
hair is turning white, and decides to take her back to his adoptive family of
trolls. There, Grand Pabbie reveals that Anna's heart has been frozen, and
unless it's thawed by "an act of true love," she will become frozen
solid forever. Kristoff bringing Anna races back to Arendelle, believing a
kiss from Hans will save her.
Meanwhile, Hans, who had gone on a search for Anna,
encounters Elsa and brings her back to Arendelle after she is knocked
unconscious during a skirmish with Weselton's men, shackling her in the
dungeon for her own protection. Hans pleads with Elsa to undo the winter, but
Elsa admits she is unable to control her powers. When Anna is reunited with
Hans and begs him to kiss her to break the curse, Hans refuses, revealing his
true plan of marrying Anna to seize control of Arendelle's throne. Leaving
Anna to die, Hans charges Elsa with treason for her sister's apparent death.
Elsa escapes and heads out into the blizzard on the
fjord. Olaf finds Anna and reveals Kristoff is in love with her. The two then
travel together onto the fjord to find him. Hans confronts Elsa and tells her
Anna is dead because of her actions. In Elsa's despair, the storm immediately
stops, giving Kristoff and Anna the chance to reach each other. However Anna,
seeing that Hans is about to kill Elsa, throws herself between the two and
subsequently freezes solid, blocking the blow.
As Elsa grieves for her sister, Anna begins to thaw,
her decision to sacrifice herself to save her sister constituting an
"act of true love". Realizing love is the key to controlling her
powers, Elsa is able to thaw the kingdom and even provide Olaf with the means
to survive outside of winter. Hans is sent back to the Southern Isles to face
punishment, and Elsa cuts off trade with Weselton. Anna and Kristoff share a
kiss, and the two sisters reconcile, with Elsa promising never to shut the
castle gates again.
