The Day the Earth Froze (1959)
Rooted in Finnish folklore, Lemminkäinen pursues the beautiful Annikki while facing the wicked witch Louhi. In a desperate move, Louhi abducts Annikki to force her brother into crafting the Sampo, a mystical artifact that generates wealth and sustenance. When Lemminkäinen's attempts to retrieve the Sampo fall short, Louhi retaliates by stealing the sun, casting the world into a chilling, sunless abyss. As darkness envelops the land, the stakes rise for Lemminkäinen, who must confront powerful forces to save Annikki and restore balance.
