What happens

Frozen Justice is a 1929 American sound (All-Talking) pre-Code drama film directed by Allan Dwan. The picture starred Lenore Ulric in her first sound film and is based on the 1920 novel, Norden For Lov og Ret, by Ejnar Mikkelsen. A shorter, silent version of the film was also released. The film was set in Nome, Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush in 1898 and 1899. Both versions are now presumed lost. One reel of the film still exists and is preserved at the Library of Congress.
