Anne Frank: Parallel Stories

Although the stories about Anna Frank are many, this time '#AnneFrank. Parallel Stories' tries to approach in an alternative way the life of one of the most famous victims of the holocaust in history. Helen Mirren is directing this documentary that returns to the pages of the diary of the young woman who hid with her family in a house in Amsterdam for more than two and a half years. The newspaper published by Otto Frank, her father and sole survivor of the family, has allowed the directors Sabina Fedeli and Ana Migotto to get to the story that the young Anna Frank lived through five other protagonists. Anna's story is intertwined with that of five Holocaust survivors, teenagers like her, with the same ideals, the same desire to live, the same courage: Arianna Szörenyi, Sarah Lichtsztejn-Montard, Helga Weiss, and sisters Andra and Tatiana Bucci. At the same time, a current teenager will try to put herself in the emotional place of the Anne Frank situation carefully. It is a co-production in which numerous European countries like Italy, the Czech Republic, Germany or France collaborate. Before reaching theaters worldwide, this documentary has reached international festivals such as the Montevideo Film Festival or the Barcelona Film Festival.
