The photo exhibition "Let me be myself", presented by the Embassy of the Netherlands in Cyprus, allows its visitors to identify with the personal story of Anne Frank. The large-format photographs show happy moments of her early life in Frankfurt and her subsequent move to Amsterdam.

The contemporary part of the exhibition presents stories of young people of today, exploring 4 key issues related to the Anne Frank story:
• ID card
