Based upon Gies' memoirs and Anne Frank's famous diary, it is an eternal story of hope, endurance and devastation. Acclaimed at the Emmy Awards with no less than six nominations, this moving film earned an Emmy for William Hanley's 'outstanding writing'. Winner of an 'American Peabody Award' and a 'Christopher Award'.
