This is the authentic account of Anne Frank, a Jewish youth residing in Amsterdam during World War II. Her father senses the imminent peril confronting Jews and conceals his household—wife Edith, daughters Margo (16) and Anne (13), plus four others—in the hidden cellar behind the house's basement, softly in the dim space. For two years, eight individuals endure dimness and hushed tones, terrified of discovery and deportation to German death camps. Meanwhile, young Anne composes a diary chronicling daily existence in the cellar, her complex bond with mother Edith, and the tale of her first affection—Peter, a fellow hidden occupant. Anne records aspirations to escape, breathe fresh air, and smell blossoms, dreaming of ultimate freedom. Eventually they are found, and all are condemned to death, and their memories endure in the world, inspiring countless generations to remember the horrors and cherish hope.
