Anne Frank's family experiences life in the annex in an exclusive new clip from the second episode of NatGeoTV's ASmallLIght. Watch now:
National Geographic is preparing to premiere the first two episodes of its historical drama series A Small Light. Based on the incredible WWII-era story of real-life heroine Miep Gies, the show tracks how the young and carefree secretary took on the enormous responsibility of protecting the Frank family and many others from persecution following the Nazi invasion of Holland.
The clip opens with Miep walking back into the house to find Anne waiting for her. Since the family is restricted to the Annex amidst the Nazi occupation, she's eager to know absolutely everything about what's happening outside from how her friends are doing to what their dentist is up to. Each member of the family has a bit of a different reaction to being cooped up inside.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As indicated by the clip, the first two episodes of A Small Light will depict how Gies begins to stand up and help the Franks and other Jewish members of the community facing persecution. She starts in the first episode with her boss Otto Frank and his family, agreeing to take them in and keep his office running in his stead.
A Small Light Highlights the Heroism and Slow Onset of Hatred Often Overlooked in WWII A Small Light is a decidedly different and fascinating take on the well-known story of Anne Frank and her family, but it's also a much-needed one. Collider's own Maggie Lovitt gave the series a B+ in her review, praising the series for its well-paced exploration of the evolution of hate while giving credence to the people who stepped up to meet the measure of said hatred as it took hold.
A Small Light will premiere its first two episodes on May 1 on National Geographic and will stream on both Hulu and Disney+. New episodes will air on Mondays. Check out the exclusive clip below.
