The Last Seven Months of Anne Frank

Anne Frank's surviving friends tell the horrifying story that begins where her famous diary leaves off, and for the first time the concentration camp experiences of Anne and her family are recounted. Among the eyewitnesses is Anne Frank's closest friend, Hannah Pick, identified as 'Lies Goosens' in Anne's diary. She was filmed at several locations where she had been with Anne, including the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.

Directed by Willy Lindwer, The Last Seven Months of Anne Frank leans on a strong ensemble — Janny Brandes-Brilslijper, Bloeme Evers, Hannah Pik-Goslar — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1988.
