Shortlisted for the 2024 Academy Award for Best Live Action Short!

A dark comedy that imagines a meeting between two representatives of the Anne Frank House and the New York design firm they’ve hired to help them renovate the gift shop to appeal to young people. What follows is an absurd and unsettling pitch meeting where they debate strategies ranging from TikTok campaigns and true-crime podcasts to Instagram-famous cats and influencer tie-ins. The result is a sharp and darkly funny exploration of how we preserve memory in the digital age—and whether there is a wrong way to talk about the Holocaust
