Russia anime
Beautifully hand-drawn version of the HC Andersen story. This was the English language dub which works fine with anime...especially when, as here, the actors used were first rate.
I watched this to compare it with Frozen: both versions took liberties with the original story but this one was much closer. The former focused on average children caught up in a nasty magical nightmare...the latter was all about royalty consistent with Disney's obsession with princess marketing possibilities.
But, really, to a child both versions would satisfy. Both have wonderful visuals, strongly drawn (pun) characters and plucky heroines who strive mightily against the odds to rescue someone they love.
