The moving and devastating final chapters of the historical docudrama are, by necessity, tragic once Nazis discover the family of Anne Frank and their friends in the secret annex in August 1944. For Miep Gies (a remarkable Bel Powley), the brave Austrian-born Dutchwoman who helped hide the Franks in Amsterdam, the crusade isn’t over yet as she takes desperate measures to try to buy their freedom. The coda, when Otto Frank (Liev Schreiber) returns as the sole survivor, is heartbreaking yet also uplifting upon his discovery that Miep saved Anne’s diary, which will go on to inspire generations
It premiered on National Geographic, Nat Geo Wild, and Lifetime on May 1 at 9 pm, and streams on Disney+ the next day
