The filming began on January 26, 2015 in Cologne.[5] Further work was done until March 2015 in Bavaria, Berlin and Brandenburg.[5] Some scenes were shot on original locations in Amsterdam, for example the Merwedeplein, where the Frank family lived before they went into hiding.[6] The exterior shots of the Prinsengracht 263 were produced in the nearby Leidsegracht. The original Anne Frank House could not be used for this purpose because its look has changed since the 1940s.[6]
The producers Michael Souvignier and Walid Nakschbandi acquired the worldwide and exclusive rights for films about Anne Frank's diary.[5] They produced the film in cooperation with Universal Pictures.[5] The work was supported by the Anne Frank Foundation, so the producers could use the whole archive.[5]
The director Hans Steinbichler regards this film as a production for the younger generation.[7] He said he wanted to make the story completely subjective and to transform the written texts of the diary into speech.[8]
It was listed as one of eight films that could be the German submission for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 89th Academy Awards.[9]
