"THE SURVIVOR'S REVENGE"
The Survivor's Revenge has received incredible global recognition. This feature length cinematic documentary tells the remarkable personal story of one of the most influential Holocaust survivors turned N**i Hunter of our times - Josef Lewkowicz z’tl. Through his own words and testimony, Josef relays how he survived six of the most brutal N**i concentration camps, to swap his striped pyjamas for a United States army intelligence uniform. As an 18-year-old N**i hunter with first-hand unique information against top N**is, he tracks down and captures the most infamous mass murderer of N**i Germany, Amon Goeth, globally known as the ‘Butcher of Plaszow’ depicted in Schindler’s List. Capturing and helping to convict five other top N**is including two concentration camp commandants, Josef is sought by Oskar Schindler himself to help evade being wrongly accused of war crimes. The only documentary film made with Josef telling his own story, it will keep you asking - how? How did an orphan, alone, surviving by stealing pig’s scraps, humiliated by his captors who murdered his entire family, resist the precipice of N**i degradation by maintaining his humanity with a mantra: “I must not become an animal like them” - and go on to achieve such incredible success.
