The Israeli filmmaker is back on the French Riviera after 2008's groundbreaking animated documentary, "Waltz with Bashir". This time, he's exploring the identity and legacy of the world's most famous diarist: Anne Frank. His animated feature "Where is Anne Frank" transports the young woman's alter ego, Kitty, to present-day Amsterdam.
Folman tells us how a family intervention convinced him to get involved with the project, how finding the right voice for his characters was key and how he pieced together his own memories of the civil war in Lebanon to make up a powerful anti-war film which defies categorisation.
