Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl is a lifeline for Cynthia Gimenez, a black, Hispanic teenager. Cynthia lives in the slums of New York City. Her father was a school teacher, but he recently died. Her brother is a drug addict; her sister, an unwed mother. Cynthia spends hour upon hour writing verses in her room or practicing rap in front of the bathroom mirror. She reads and rereads a gift from her father: Anne Frank's diary.
