WE ARE OUR CHOICES

WE ARE OUR CHOICES
By Simon O'Corra

GENRE: Historical
LOGLINE:

A decades long and epic battle finally unravelling in Nazi occupied Amsterdam between two lesbians, one a Gentile, and one a Jew. Both women are collaborators, arch betrayers, one even selling out Anne Frank and her family. Each of them will feel the wrath of the Dutch people, but one more than the other. 


SYNOPSIS:

Good times and Bad times overlap in this story of the infamous Ans van Dijk, Jewess and lesbian, who in order to survive, becomes a Nazi collaborator and arch betrayer of Jews, including her own family, and possibly Anne Frank and her family.

Life has dealt Ans difficult blows over the years, despite initially finding love and a solid business as a milliner. But a Gentile woman, Femcke, has had it in for Ans since childhood, and it is her who spends her life hounding Ans, culminating in Ans' execution.

This piece explores the grey areas surrounding collaboration and survival. None of knows what we would do in similar circumstances.
