This Oscar winning feature documentary is the first and, to this
day, the only truly comprehensive eye-witness account of the life and
legacy of the iconic child diarist, Anne Frank. Combining surprising and
often emotional interview, photographs, previously undiscovered family
letters, rare archive footage (including the only known moving footage
of Anne herself) with evocative contemporary film, this haunting
documentary was halied as a masterpiece; in the British and American
press when it was first released. By peeking away the onion skin layers
of mythology and concentrating closely on the details of Anne's brief
life, rather than her famous Diary the film makes real, as never before,
the story of this one child and her family, and those who lived and
died with her. For the first time a DVD is available of this
extraordinary film which includes narration in a choice of English or
Dutch, together with a choice of sub-titles in German, French, Spanish,
Dutch and English (for the hard of hearing). This is a Region Free
(Region 0) NTSC DVD manufactured in Europe, not a US import. It is
Worldwide Play but does require a tv and dvd player than can play NTSC
This haunting Jon Blair documentary is the most moving Holocaust film of them all. --Sunday Telegraph
Remorselessly
moving but never relying on grief to win its audience, this is a
faultless examination of the polarity of human nature. An extraordinary
film. --Time Out
