The Diary of Anne Frank

June 1942. WWII Amsterdam is under Nazi occupation. Anne Frank, a teenage Jewish girl, is celebrating her 13th birthday with her family and friends. Amongst her birthday presents, she is given a red diary.

The toilet is blocked and Anne's father, Otto, is forced to try and unblock it with a stick. When he fails, they have to resort to using jam jars until it is mended.

The routine in the annex is now very established. Otto tries to keep up with company business by lying on the floor and listening to meetings downstairs, and he is shocked to discover that the building has had to be sold.

Anne’s birthday will be a modest affair. Her family give her whatever they can, but the only present that really excites her is the bar of chocolate she is given.
