Hello.
I’m Luna and I play Anne Frank in the series.
It’s very strange.
I want to do something so that people will remember me.
I really want to mean something.
Hello!
Hi.
We can’t give each other a hug now - Well, just a little one.
This is Femke. - Hi!
This is Femke from the Anne Frank House.
We’re going to give you a guided tour through the Anne Frank Huis.
Where are we now?
Just now we were on the other side.
I’ll show you.
On the pavement where we saw each other for the first time.
And now we’re inside.
So this is actually the entrance for all the people who worked in the OPECTA warehouse…
who worked in this place.
There was a break-in here.
So the scene which you played
when …there was a break-in - Yes.
when everyone was so scared, as Anne wrote in her diary.
That happened here.
The men are looking to see what happened.
I’m here with Mum, Margot and Auguste.
We’re waiting.
What’s that?
So is this where they broke in?
Yes.
They came here to get stuff at that time.
So that happened here.
And that’s why it was so dangerous, because of course they were above, in the annex.
They heard it and had to be as quiet as mice.
They had to be quiet anyway during the day,
but when there was a break-in at night,
you can imagine how terrified they were.
This is roughly what it looked like here.
Now we’re going to Otto Frank’s private office.
So usually this isn’t open to visitors?
Yes, that’s right. Usually it isn’t open to visitors
but we can just take a little look.
This is the original one isn’t it?
Yes, the desk.
The original desk.
You filmed some scenes here too, didn’t you?
We did.
Oh, and we also filmed a scene here.
In the toilet?
Yes, in the toilet.
Two, one …
That was the first scene we ever filmed...
that was there.
Really?
This was where we filmed the scene with the strawberries.
That was the scene which was most fun of all.
It was nice to be altogether…
and I ate a lot of strawberries.
Yes? - It was very nice and good fun filming that scene.
Look, here are the stairs.
That was the staircase that the helpers took to go upstairs.
And then up here, through the bookcase to the hiding place.
They’re really very steep.
Now we’re walking to the front office.
This was the office of one of the helpers. He was called Victor Kugler.
He’d taken over the management of the company to some extent,
together with Mr. Kleiman.
So they would be here in the front office with Miep Gies and Bep Voskuijl.
Johan Voskuijl was Bep’s father.
He was the warehouse manager downstairs.
His daughter Bep Voskuijl helped the group in hiding
and also got their shopping and things.
Together with Miep Gies.
And Jan Gies, her husband.
He provided the ration cards, because you used to need them to buy food.
So now we’re in the storage area and almost at the bookcase
which leads to the annex.
This is where I heard that I’d been given he role to play Anne.
I’d been told to come here for a third audition.
But then they actually told me that I’d been given the role.
That all happened here.
So this is a special room for me.
In five seconds I’ll look into the camera
take a deep breath …
Hello everyone.
I’ve got wonderful news.
I can now officially announce who’s going to play the leading role.
What?
Go on.
OK.
Who’s going to play the leading role in my video diary series..
OK.
It’s rather dark here.
So now we’re in the bedroom of Otto, Edith and Margot.
The three of them slept here.
This is roughly what it looked like.
Rather small for three people.
Here’s the map.
Perhaps you recognise it from the series …
because we also did an episode about it.
About D-Day.
These are the lines which show how much Anne and Margot grew while they were here.
We’re now in the room of Anne.
And Fritz.
So this was a real room for two years.
It’s strange to think that she put those pictures up on the wall
and that she really stood here, we’re I’m standing now.
Everything OK downstairs?
Yes.
So this was the living room.
This was also where Auguste and Hermann slept.
They slept over here.
Now we’re going to the next room …
and that was Peter’s room.
What were those scenes with Peter like for you?
It was very embarrassing.
Because I don’t think of Ezra, who plays Peter, like that at all.
And Ezra doesn’t see me like that. We’re just friends .
So it’s strange when you suddenly have to act like you’re in love …
Normally we’re not like that when we’re together at all.
So that really was very embarrassing.
Look. You can’t go up these stairs anymore.
Because they’re the original stairs, so if you go up them they’ll break.
That’s why we put a mirror there, so you can see roughly what the attic looked like.
This is the original diary.
The whole series is based on the diary.
All those people really lived. Everything is true.
The only thing that’s different in the series, is that Anne has a video camera instead of a diary.
This is the end of the guided tour.
It’s a long time since I was here, and of course I did come here a lot.
But it’s been a long time, and every time it’s good to be back.
and especially to know that Anne really walked around here too.
So I’ll ..
say goodbye!
