Interviews with Lotte Kramer and Eva Schloss at an exhibition about Anne Frank.

Inside Peterborough Cathedral, people visit an exhibition of photographs about the life of Anne Frank, the Jewish girl who kept a diary about her family’s experiences in the Netherlands under Nazi occupation during World War II. Some of the images are shown including photographs of prisoners in Nazi concentration camps. Attending the exhibition are poet Lotte Kramer who lost all her family in the death camps, and Eva Schloss who was the same age as Anne Frank and played with her as a child. Anglia Television reporter Pat Beasley asks them why Anne Frank’s story should be told forty years on. This video was made to be shown in a news story on Anglia Television early evening news / magazine programme About Anglia.
