Only Extant Film of Anne Frank

Only Extant Film of Anne Frank

The footages was shot July 22 1941.

There are two brief glimpses of Anne Frank leaning out of the window of her childhood home in Amsterdam as the couple from the house next door gets married. The bride lived on the second floor at Merwedeplein 39. The Frank family also lived on the second floor, but at number 37. The footage was provided by the Anne Frank House, with the help of the bride and groom in the footage. Anne Frank is of course primarily known for the diary she kept as a young girl while she and her family were in hiding. She died in the Bergin Belsen concentration camp. The newly released video is part of the materials from the new Anne Frank YouTube channel; there's an interview with her father Otto as well.
