00:00Discovering the Real Anne Frank
00:01Beyond a Diary
00:03Anne Frank, a name that evokes the image
00:06of a brave young girl.
00:07Diary became a beacon of hope in the midst
00:10of darkness.
00:12But what if I told you that the story
00:14we know is only one part of
00:16a much more complex narrative?
00:18Today, we will unravel
00:19five surprising details about Anne Frank's
00:22life that you might not know.
00:24And that rewriter legacy
00:25forever. Beyond the diary that made her
00:28famous, Anne was a prolific writer
00:29with dreams of greatness.
00:32She didn't just document her
00:34life in the Annex. She also
00:36wrote short stories, fables,
00:38and essays, which she called her
00:40literary creations.
00:41With an ambition that exceeded her confinement,
00:44she organized her writings in a notebook
00:46she called Tales and Events from the Annex,
00:49complete with an index,
00:50dreaming of the day she could see
00:52her work published.
00:53It was a crucial moment that transformed her diary
00:56from a simple personal outlet
00:57into a historical work.
00:59On March 28, 1944,
01:02a radio broadcast from
01:04the Dutch government in exile urged
01:06its citizens to document their lives
01:08under Nazi occupation.
01:10Inspired, Anne saw the opportunity
01:12to give a voice to her experience.
01:14From May to August 1944, she began to rewrite and edit
01:20her diary on loose-leaf pages, with the firm intention of publishing it under the title
01:25The Secret Annex.
01:27Her goal was no longer just to tell her story, but to create a testimony for history.
01:32The way her hiding place was discovered has been the subject of debate for decades.
01:37The popular belief that it was an anonymous tip has been challenged by a new theory.
01:43This theory holds that the annex was found by chance during a police raid investigating rationing coupon fraud.
01:48A tragic twist of fate, not a betrayal could be the real reason for her capture.
01:54The diary's survival was a true miracle.
01:57When the Gestapo raided her hiding place,
02:01the officers threw a suitcase full of her writings,
02:04including the diary, onto the floor,
02:06thinking it only contained worthless papers.
02:09Otto Frank, the family's sole survivor,
02:11left us with a phrase that resonates to this day.
02:15If they had taken the diary,
02:16no one would ever have heard of my daughter.
02:18Thanks to the courage of Meek G's, one of the family's helpers,
02:23the diary was recovered and returned to Otto after the war,
02:27thus preserving Anne's voice for the world.
02:30Finally, it's important to know that the version of the diary we all know is not the original.
02:36There are actually three versions.
02:38The first, Anne's raw writings.
02:41The second, the version she herself edited for publication.
02:44And the third, the one that reached us, was edited by her father, Otto Frank,
02:50in order to make the account more accessible to a 1947 audience.
02:56Otto omitted passages in which Anne criticized her mother and reflected on her sexuality.
03:01Anne's story was preserved, but not without sacrifices.
03:05And with it, we were left with a more heroic and less adolescent Anne,
03:10an image that has endured to this day.
