AnneFrank. Parallel Stories
Primo Levi says that one Anne Frank moves us more than all of the other people who went through the same things she did, but whose faces have been hidden from us. Helen Mirren, who won an Oscar®, will tell the story of Anne Frank's life through the words in her diary. The set will be her room in the secret refuge in Amsterdam. Set designers from the Piccolo Theatre in Milan will build it from scratch. This year, Anne Frank would have been 90 years old. Anne's story is connected to that of Arianna Szorenyi, Sarah Lichtsztejn-Montard, Helga Weiss, and the Bucci sisters, Andra and Tatiana. All of them were teenagers when they survived the Holocaust. They had the same ideals and the same desire to live as Anne. Their stories alternate with those of their children and grandchildren.
