Familielid van Anne Frank maakt YouTubeserie over haar leven: "Belangrijk om verhaal te blijven vertellen" 17.04.2026

In an effort to continue sharing Anne Frank's story, her relative Leyb Elias, the grandchild of Anne's first cousin Buddy Elias, has created an eight-part YouTube documentary series titled 'Anne Frank was here' in collaboration with the Anne Frank Foundation. Premiering on April 17, 2026, the series follows Elias, a 28-year-old actor from Germany, as she visits significant locations from Anne Frank's life, including Amsterdam, Frankfurt, and Basel, as well as Nazi camps. Beyond recounting Anne's history, Elias engages with individuals actively combating hate, discrimination, and antisemitism, aiming to convey a message of connection and dialogue, echoing Anne Frank's own sentiment that positive change can begin immediately. The Anne Frank Foundation initiated the series with the goal of engaging younger audiences.
