THE SHOW TRAILER

SYNOPSIS

This story happened around two hundred years ago, in a small town, where Kai and Gerda — a brother and sister — lived. Every week, at the same time, inseparable, they ran down to the market square. Today was a special Sunday — the circus has come to town! Far-far from here, to the north, where ice never melts and everything around is shrouded in snow, the Snow Queen ordered her liege trolls to make such a mirror, in which everything kind and beautiful became ugly. Once, she commanded them to take the mirror up high in the sky, and suddenly it slipped out and shattered into a thousand tiny pieces... If one of the tiny shards found its way into a person’s heart, it turned into a piece of ice. One of the little pieces of the mirror fell into poor Kai’s heart... He vanished — no one could tell Gerda anything about him. She went searching for him: crossed forests, mountains and hills to come to the Snow Kingdom and bring her brother back home. She confronted the Snow Queen and showed that love and friendship can be permanent and last forever.
