Where is Anne Frank produced by Jani Thiltges (Samsa Film), directed by Ari Folman, is the second film in the official selection for the forthcoming Cannes Festival (6-17 July 2021) following the announcement that Joachim Lafosse's film Les intranquilles (Samsa Film) had been selected for the competition.
This animated feature is a co-production between Belgium, Luxembourg, Israel, the Netherlands and France and will be screened out of competition, celebrating its world premiere at Cannes.
Most of the animation was produced in Luxembourg by teams from the company Doghouse Films (Pierre Urbain and David Mouraire). The technique used in the film combines both classic 2D and stop-motion sets. The sound mixing was done by Michel Schillings.
After The Congress in 2013 (Paul Thiltges Distributions/Studio 352), this is the second film by the Israeli director co-produced with Luxembourg to be selected for the prestigious Cannes Festival.
Where is Anne Frank will be released worldwide from November 2021.
Synopsis: The present day. Kitty, Anne Frank's imaginary friend, the one to whom Anne dedicated her diary, magically comes to life in Anne Frank's house in Amsterdam. She thinks that if she is alive, Anne must be too. So she embarks on an incredible quest to find Anne.
