The five surviving members of the Jewish High Command tell in details the gripping story of the Warsaw Ghetto revolt, a unique event in Jewish as well as non-Jewish history. For the first time, the Jews took up arms against the Nazis. In 1943 the remaining 50,000 Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto realized that there was no hope that any of them would survive the Holocaust. Filmed and interviewed on location in Warsaw, the survivors give an insider's account of the dramatic events that unfold in 1943, right in the heart of the Polish capital.
