The series is a dramatic retelling rooted in real events, following a Dutch husband and wife who, at great personal risk, sheltered Anne Frank, her relatives and additional Jews facing persecution. Set against the backdrop of the Second World War, the couple’s courageous decision to hide these families placed them in constant danger from occupying forces. Their story, which forms the core of the programme, highlights the perilous choices ordinary people made to protect those targeted by the Nazi regime. The narrative conveys how their home became a refuge, how secrecy was vital, and how the constant threat of betrayal loomed.
