The story of Frozen II happens three years after the first movie. It follows Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, and Sven. They go on a big adventure outside their home, Arendelle. Their goal is to find out where Elsa's amazing ice powers come from. A mysterious voice calls to Elsa, leading them on this journey. They also need to save their kingdom.

Frozen II first showed in Hollywood on November 7, 2019. It was released in the United States on November 22, 2019. Critics liked the movie a lot. They praised its animation, visuals, story, music, and voices. The movie earned over $1.4 billion worldwide. It had the biggest opening weekend ever for an animated movie. It is one of the highest-grossing animated movies of all time.

Kristoff and the Sami People

The character Kristoff in Frozen is meant to be part of the Sami people. The Sami are a group of native people who live in northern Europe and Asia.

Some viewers of the first Frozen movie felt that Kristoff did not truly represent the Sami. This was because he has light skin and blond hair. This is sometimes called "whitewashing." While some Sami people do look like Kristoff, many have darker skin and hair.

For Frozen II, Disney wanted to show the Sami people respectfully. They worked closely with Sami leaders. Disney also hired Sami experts to help. This helped make sure the fictional Sami people in the movie, called the Northuldra, were shown in a good way.
