action
The life story of Anne Frank is told from the perspective of her father Otto Frank. After his liberation and return from the Auschwitz concentration camp , he went back to his company in Amsterdam at Prinsengracht 263. There he received the diary of his daughter Anne from his office worker Miep Gies , who helped the hidden residents in the rear building. Miep Gies had kept the loose pages and books scattered on the floor in the rear building and hidden them in a desk drawer so that she could give them back to Anne after the war.
After much hesitation, Otto Frank finally begins to sort the loose pages, sort them by date and read them. In this way he gets to know his younger daughter from new, still unknown sides, which she covered over during her lifetime, hid from all family members and residents of the rear house and only confided in her diary, which she called her friend "Kitty". This begins a path of suffering over the loss of his beloved daughter, which brings back many memories of the experiences in the Secret Annex.

criticism
“The first German film project about Anne Frank focuses more on the father-daughter relationship than others so far. Götz Schubert plays Otto Frank as a fine gentleman who, after the war, was the first to recognize the importance of his daughter's diary. Anne Frank (impressive: Mala Emde) is not stylized as a heroine, but is a talented, but also exhausting, pubescent girl. Documentary material is carefully assembled into the fictional narrative. My daughter Anne Frank is not a didactic history lesson, but an intensive intimate play about life in the Amsterdam Secret Annex. Convincing book, strong staging and no exaggerated pathos. "
“It is no small art to let the time levels and the contrast between inside and outside flow seamlessly into one another and sometimes even to merge: When Anne sits at her desk and writes, newsreel images are projected onto the wall of her prison-like hiding place why she has to hide. When Otto Frank (great: Götz Schubert) reads from the diary in private after the war, Annes who wrote the lines joins his voice. […] The film doesn't just visualize the diary, it also reflects the context of its creation, its edition history and its impact. [...] In the hiding place, it was once said at the Franks' dinner that 'all cultural languages, so no German'. The 'special Miss Anne', as her father calls the ambitious girl, is allowed to live out her great literary talent. It made the Nazis' breach of civilization easier to bear, but it did not save Anne Frank: 70 years ago, in March 1945, shortly before the end of the war, she died exhausted in Bergen-Belsen. She told an old friend she met in the camp shortly before her death about her diary. [...] The film My Daughter Anne Frank is beyond all doubt - and a prime example of successful public television. "
