"As an amateur photographer, Otto Frank focuses on a single theme: the life and times of his family, wife Edith and daughters Anne and Margot. Nothing we see in the snapshots of daily life captured by Otto Frank – one of the first users of the 35mm Leica camera - reveals the horrors the Frank Family will later endure."
