The Legend of Sarila (French: La Légende de Sarila) is a 2013 3-D CGI film.[1] The film draws heavily on Inuit culture and tradition.[1] The film was picked up for distribution in the US by Phase 4 Films,[2] under the title Frozen Land (not to be confused with the Finnish movie Frozen Land) in order to compete with Frozen.

Production

The $8.5 million production was promoted as Canada's first 3D animated feature film.[3]

Disney Lawsuit

In late December, The Walt Disney Company filed in Cal­i­for­nia fed­eral court to get an injunc­tion against the continued distribution of this film, retitled Frozen Land. In their suit, Disney alleges: "To enhance the com­mer­cial suc­cess of Sar­ila, the defen­dant redesigned the art­work, pack­ag­ing, logo, and other pro­mo­tional mate­ri­als for its newly (and inten­tion­ally mis­lead­ingly) reti­tled film to mimic those used by [Dis­ney] for Frozen and related merchandise." The suit was filed against distributor Phase 4 Films.[4]
