Anne Frank

After making one of the most successful adult animated films of all time in "Waltz With Bashir", Israeli director Ari Folman vowed never to tackle the mind-bending complexity of such projects again.

But when he got the chance to bring the iconic story of Anne Frank to the big screen for children, he couldn't resist - even though it ended up taking over his life for eight years.

The anti-fascist association in the town of Sibenik will mark Holocaust Remembrance Day with a reading of Anne Frank’s diary after a local school director barred an exhibition about the WWII diarist.

Jewish teenager Anne Frank died in a Nazi concentration camp at least a month earlier than her official date of death, a new study said on March 31.
      
"New research... has shed fresh light on the last days of Anne Frank and her sister Margot," the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam said on Tuesday, until now her official death date.
      

Visitors to the Tresnja children's theatre in Zagreb will have an opportunity on Friday to see the keenly awaited premiere of "Anne Frank", a play based on the real story of a Jewish girl in Nazi-occupied Holland who kept a secret diary.

Frank wrote the diary between June 1942 and August 1944 while her family was hiding in an attic in Amsterdam.

On March 23, the Prime Minster of Japan, Shinzo Abe, visited the Anne Frank House and met with Mr. Ronald Leopold, Executive Director of Anne Frank House.

The visit was part of Abe's trip to the Netherlands from March 23 to 25.
