Goldstein - ein phantastisches Leben

A story based on researched evidence and statements from eyewitnesses, featuring real people: Actor, director, and acting lecturer Raphael-Maria Goldstein discovers that he does not come from a respectable entrepreneurial family in Duisburg; rather, he was adopted as a child. His mother, Auschwitz survivor Esther Goldstein, hesitantly reveals to him who his father is: Otto Frank, the father of Anne Frank. He decides to write not only about the odyssey of his origins but also about his eventful professional life in the world of theater and film. After he finishes the manuscript, he passes away. The author takes over the manuscript, examines his documents, speaks with contemporaries, and conducts research. Gradually, the extent of this incredible life story is revealed to her. Nothing is as it seems, but much appears as if it could have been so. "He was perhaps the most enigmatic person I have ever met." Ruth Schweikert (writer).
