titled "ANNE FRANK REMEMBERED" (1995). A British BBC production narrated by Kenneth Branagh and Glenn Close, the film won an Oscar Award in the best documentary category in 1996. This month Anne would have been 90 years old. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Frank_Remembered

The film covers Anne's life with touching recollections by those who knew her in Amsterdam and the Polish concentration camps where she and her mother and sisters were sent in 1944, Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen. The film includes clips of Anne's father, Otto Frank speaking tenderly of her and her diary in interviews filmed in the post-war period. Otto was the only person to survive in Anne's immediate family.

This in depth documentary I can't rate highly enough. After searching I found a trailer for it on YouTube, but not the entire 1-hour film. (*I did see other films named similarly- 'Remembering Anne Frank,' but not the exact one I'm searching for).

> If it's available on Netflix that would be great; I don't have an account with them to check.
