00:00It's the middle of winter in Mooman Valley, and all as quiet and peaceful in Mooman House
00:29is everybody enjoys their winter slumber. The house is full of dust covers, on the chandelier,
00:36on the furniture, on everything, waiting until they all wake up again on the first day of
00:41spring and start to get everything in Mooman House clean and ready for the coming summer.
00:59But what's this? It looks like Mooman is restless, as if something has disturbed him. I wonder
01:05what he was dreaming about. I wonder what time it is. Oh, it's nearly twenty after two.
01:23I wonder whether it's morning or afternoon. It doesn't really matter, I suppose. Oh, it's stopped.
01:35Oh, it's frozen. It looks really dark out there. Mama, Mama, please wake up. Papa, Papa,
02:04Mama, Mama, Mama, what's wrong with me? I feel wide awake. It's very odd. I don't usually
02:30wake up when I'm hibernating. Oh, dear, the whole house is buried in snow.
03:00Oh.
03:31Oh, this doesn't look like Mooman Valley. And it's so quiet. Oh. What was that? Perhaps
03:59I'd better go home. No, what's the matter with me? Everyone's asleep, and the furniture's
04:05all covered up, and Moomins don't give up. I wish Snufkin were here. He's probably in
04:24the far south, where it's warm and sunny. I wonder what that is.
04:54Get that box off of me! Huh? That sounds like... Oh, yes, it's Little My.
05:23Bye then, Bobo. What are you doing here, Mooman? What am I doing here? I heard strange
05:28noises and came to see what it was. Then you crashed into me like an avalanche, and I've
05:32just lifted the box off you, and... Oh, don't be stupid, Mooman. I mean, why are you out
05:36in the snow and not hibernating like the others? Spring's not for ages. Oh, I don't know.
05:42I just woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. But what about you sliding about like that?
05:47You should be asleep, too. Yes, I should, but I just woke up as well, probably to look
05:51after you. I tried to wake my stupid sister, but she kept on snoring. But I think this
05:56snow is really great. Well, I don't. It's cold, it's slippy, much too bright, and it's
06:02everywhere and far too quiet. I saw the Groke. Oh, that horrible freezing monster? She should
06:10feel at home in this, and there's no point in her trying to freeze anything. I saw her
06:14on the hill. Then it was her voice I heard. Yes, and the trouble with the horrid thing
06:19is that she's so cold I wouldn't even want to touch her, Mooman. It's her!
06:35I'm getting cold shivers all over. Well, what do you expect in the snow? No, it's the Groke's
06:39fault. She's done it. Look at my skin, it's all goose bumpy. It's not like that in the
06:44summer. It's smooth, not lumpy. It's not the snow that makes me feel so cold, it's
06:50her staring at me. I'm scared.
07:00That was great. Good, isn't it? You can have as much as you like. We picked more raspberries
07:05than ever this year, and Mama made lots of juice. Thanks. I want that. Mama's silver
07:16tray? Yeah. What do you want it for? To slide on the snow with, of course, stupid. But it's
07:22a sort of family treasure, an heirloom. Well, you never use it, and it's so shiny. It'll
07:28make a great sled, and go really fast.
07:37Doesn't look like they'll wake up till spring. They're lucky they're still sleeping. I think
07:42it's very unfair that I woke up like this.
07:48So, what should we do now? I want to go look at the sea. Good idea. At least that won't
07:53be covered in snow.
07:58I bet the great cold was just like this.
08:15Oh, no. What's the matter? I forgot the tray. Never mind. You couldn't use it as a boat
08:20anyway. It would sink. Yes, you could. What? How? Oh, look. There's the sink.
08:28But it's all frozen. So we'll be able to slide on it. What's that over there?
08:59Huh?
09:07Huh? Tootiki! Hello, you two.
09:14You're not hibernating either? Oh, no. I haven't got time to spend four months sleeping. Why
09:20not? Little Maya and I just woke up, and now we don't know what to do. I'm sure you can
09:24think of something. I suppose so. I've never seen the sea frozen before. Did you make that
09:30horse, Tootiki? Yes, I did. Can I sit on it? No, you can't. I made it for the Lady of the
09:36Cold. Oh, I see. I suppose you've heard of her. Yes, she's very beautiful, but if she
09:42looks into your eyes, you're turned into a block of ice. She's not a very nice lady.
09:46That's right, Little Maya, and spring can never come while she's here. It waits for
09:50her to go. Oh, I see. And are you hoping she'll ride away on this horse then? Yes, and it
09:57will take her back to the north, where she stays until she comes here again next winter
10:01and drives the sun away. The horse doesn't look very solid to me, Tootiki. Well, that's
10:07why I'm going to pour water over it when it gets really cold, and then it'll freeze solid.
10:11When is the Lady of the Cold coming? You can never tell, but soon. Tonight, perhaps. It
10:18feels much colder already.
10:36What's happened to the sun, Tootiki? Do you know when the sun will come back again? It's
10:42in the south, shining on Snufkin, but it'll be back soon, and then it will stay a bit
10:47longer each day. Good, I can't wait. Now, there'll be a full moon tonight, and we'll
10:53be able to see everything. Great! I can get my tray out! I can't wait to try it on the
10:57sea! What do you mean, your tray? Well, it's Moominmama's tray, but I'm using it. I'm
11:02going to put a sail on it and slide across the ice. Why not wait till tomorrow? Wait
11:07until tomorrow? No. When I want to do something, I do it now. What if the ice suddenly melts
11:13or something? Yeah! I like it here. It's warm and cozy. I hope Moominpapa doesn't mind me
11:23using it. This is Papa's bathhouse. He built it himself, and he'd be very glad to know
11:29you're using it. It's great. The window panes are different colors. If you look out through
11:34one, the world is red, and through another one, the world is green.
11:43Oh, you don't hibernate either, do you? Now scram! The horrible lady of the cold is coming,
11:55and if she looks you in the eye, you'll turn to ice! Go on, go away!
12:12Moomin! Tootikki! Moomin! Moomin! Tootikki, where are you? Little Mike, we're over here.
12:27Huh? What are you doing down there? Tootikki's trying to catch some fish. If she does, she's
12:36going to cook us some dinner. Right! I've got to get sailing then. I'd better go see
12:42what she's doing to Mama Silver Tray. Okay. Ah, got one! Oh dear me. It's cold and wet
13:02under that ice. How are you doing, Little Mike? Very well, thank you. How can you get
13:09under the ice anyway? I guess the water must be low and there's a gap left there. Oh, how?
13:14I don't know, but perhaps the tide was in when the sea froze, and some of it got stuck
13:19to the shore. Oh, I suppose it's possible. Tootikki told me that she has fish soup every
13:26day in the wintertime. I know, I'll go see if the horse is frozen yet. Make sure you
13:34shut the door behind you. Ow! My thumb! I don't think it's hard enough yet. It'll collapse
13:50if the Lady of the Coal gets on it now. Oh, it's getting colder and colder.
14:21The Groke! Don't tell me you want to ride the horse. I don't think you'd better. This
14:34is for the Lady of the Coal, you know. There's no telling what she'd do to you. Look you
14:42in the eye, probably. Even the Groke is frightened of the Lady of the Coal. Ah, now it looks
15:02frozen. Whee! Ah-ha-ha! Yee-hee! Whee! Yee-ha! Great, isn't it, Moomin? Yeah, that old
15:21tray really moves. Want a go? No thanks, I'm too big. Come on now, the fish soup is ready
15:27and it's time you were inside, Little My. Keep it warm for me, I'm having another go.
15:32No, Little My. Why not? Have you forgotten what I told you? The Lady of the Coal may
15:37be coming. Oh. Well, I want to see her. I'm not scared of her. I'll be moving so fast
15:43she won't get a chance. No. Now listen to me, Little My. All you have to do is not let
15:49her look you in the eye. But what happens if you're not quick enough and she catches
15:52you before you turn away? I know. If we watch her from the bathhouse, she won't see us.
16:02Please, Little My, come in. She's almost here. We can watch her from inside. That's no good.
16:12I want to see her properly. No, Little My, don't go. Come back, Little My. Oh dear. Come
16:27on, let's get back in the cabin before it's too late. Oh, the Lady of the Coal.
16:57I saw her face. I saw her face. I saw her and she didn't turn me to ice. Trust Little
17:24My to get away with it. I don't know how she does it. I think her nerves are made of steel.
17:30I hope she's all right. She should try not to make so much noise out there.
18:23I saw her face. I saw her face. Come on, more wind. Oh no, don't stop now. More wind.
18:47Come on, this is it. Little My.
19:17Little My.
19:42Little My, come on, please. Wake up, please. Oh, please don't stay frozen, Little My.
20:02Don't worry, Little My, we'll thaw you out. Don't worry, it's nice and warm here.
20:21Ow, that's hot, Moomin. Praise the Bulbul, you've come back.
20:26So Little My came back from the cold, little the worse for wear. Moomin need not have worried,
20:35for the Little My's in this world are practically indestructible.
