Where Is Anne Frank, dir. Ari Folman, Belgium / France / Luxembourg / Netherlands / Israel 2022, 99 min., English, PG
Ari Folman (Waltz with Bashir) puts an imaginative spin on the story of Anne Frank in this animated feature, which transplants the story to present-day Amsterdam and tells it from the perspective of Kitty (voiced by Ruby Stokes), the imaginary friend to whom Anne wrote her Diary of a Young Girl.
Kitty springs magically to life in the house that Anne (voiced by Emily Carey) once called home. However, this is not the 1940s but ‘one year from now’, and Anne’s home is now a museum. Mystified by her friend’s absence, Kitty takes off with Anne’s diary – unaware it’s now a valued museum piece. Inadvertently on the run, Kitty catches up on 75 years of history, and finds herself in the company of refugees facing deportation. Aided by a soundtrack from indie-rock royalty Karen O (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and Ben Goldwasser (MGMT), it’s a highly imaginative treatment of this endlessly powerful story.
