About this listen

The Frozen films draw significant inspiration from the culture, landscape, and traditions of the Sámi people, the Indigenous inhabitants of northern Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia’s Kola Peninsula. Elements such as the snowy mountain setting of Arendelle, the reindeer herder Kristoff, and the mystical depiction of nature spirits reflect Sámi livelihoods and shamanic beliefs. For Frozen II, Disney worked with Sámi cultural experts to respectfully portray themes of elemental spirits, the enchanted forest, and the Northuldra people, which echo Sámi mythology and their deep spiritual connection to the natural world.
