Belgium, Luxembourg, Israel, Netherlands, France, 2021, Colour, 99 min. Režija / Director: Ari Folman Uloge / Cast: Ruby Stokes, Emily Carey, Sebastian Croft, Ralph Prosser, Michael Maloney
GDJE JE ANA FRANK? počinje čudom: Kiti, imaginarna prijateljica kojoj je Ana Frank pisala u svome slavnom dnevniku, oživljava u današnjem Amsterdamu. Nesvjesna da je prošlo već 75 godina, Kiti je uvjerena da ako je ona živa, onda mora biti živa i Ana. GDJE JE ANA FRANK prati Kiti tokom njene potrage za voljenom prijateljicom širom današnje Evrope. Naoružana dragocjenim dnevnikom i uz pomoć svoga prijatelja Petera, koji vodi tajno sklonište za nedokumentovane migrante, Kiti korača Aninim stopama, sve do njene tragične smrti u holokaustu. Dezorijentisana našim slomljenim svijetom i nepravdama koje djeca izbjeglice trpe, Kiti želi ostvariti Anin cilj. Zahvaljujući njenoj iskrenosti, Kiti šalje poruku nade i velikodušnosti budućim generacijama. WHERE IS ANNE FRANK? begins with a miracle: Kitty, the imaginary friend to whom Anne Frank wrote in her famous diary, comes to life in present-day Amsterdam. Unaware that seventy-five years have gone by, Kitty is convinced that if she is alive, then Anne must
be alive too. WHERE IS ANNE FRANK tells the story of Kitty’s quest across contemporary Europe to find her beloved friend. Armed with the precious diary and with help from her friend Peter, who runs a secret shelter for undocumented refugees, Kitty follows Anne’s traces, from the Annex to her tragic end in the Holocaust. Disoriented by our broken world, and the injustices that child refugees endure, Kitty wants to fulfill Anne’s cause. Through her honesty, she presents a message of hope and generosity addressed to future generations.

Film KAKO SE SADA ZOVE OVA ZEMLJA? zasnovan je na iskustvu Aide Čerkez, Bosanke koja je tokom opsade Sarajeva radila kao novinarka. Aida je 1994. godine došla na ideju da povodom osamdesete godišnjice Sarajevskog atentata na austrougarskog prestolonasljednika Franza Ferdinanda

pokuša pronaći nekoga od svjedoka tog prelomnog historijskog događaja. Pronašla je devedesetogodišnjeg Ismeta, koji je u vrijeme atentata imao deset godina. Ismet je bio svjedok pucnja koji je bio povod za početak Prvog svjetskog rata i nastavio je živjeti u Sarajevu tokom burnih godina koje su uslijedile. Aida intervjuiše Ismeta i sa njim dijelil vlastito viđenje života u ratu. WHAT’S THIS COUNTRY CALLED NOW? is based on the experiences of Aida Čerkez, a Bosnian woman who worked as a reporter throughout the Siege of Sarajevo. In 1994, on the eightieth anniversary of the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Aida had the idea of finding a witness to that seminal event in world history. She found Ismet, now ninety years old, who was ten years old on that fateful day in 1914. He witnessed the shot that triggered the First World War and continued to live in Sarajevo through the years of conflict that followed. Aida interviews Ismet and in the process shares her own perspective on life during wartime.
