Where Is Anne Frank (2021)
The story begins with a miracle: Kitty, the imaginary friend with whom Anne Frank wrote her famous diary, come's to life in modern Amsterdam. Unaware that 75 years have passed, she's convinced that if she's alive, so must Anne. She embarks on a journey through time to find her beloved friend. With the help of a friend, Peter, who runs a secret shelter for refugees without IDs and armed with a rare diary, she follows Anna's traces from the shelter to her tragic end during the Holocaust. Kitty, lost in the modern world and disgusted by the injustice that child refugees have to endure, wants to fulfill Anna's legacy. With sincerity, she presents a message of hope and generosity addressed to future generations.
