  Escape from Treblinka:
  The Joseph Polonski Story
  Debuts on International Holocaust
  Remembrance Day, Thursday,
  January 27 at 7:30 p.m.
     This movie chronicles the life of Joseph
  Polonski from a young child in Silvaki,
  Poland, to the Jewish Ghetto and ultimately
  to Treblinka, the most rigorous death camp
  created under the Nazi regime. Keen intellect
  and some luck allowed Joseph to escape from
  Treblinka (one of only two known escapees)
  after which he served as an officer in the
  resistance, fighting Nazis until the liberation.
  After being placed in a DP (displaced
  persons) camp, Joseph learned electronics in
  a German ORT School and immigrated to the
  United States in 1949. With only the shirt on
  his back and $10 given to him from a distant
  relative, Joseph built a thriving business and
  a loving family. This story is a true testament
  to determination, true grit and the life of
  Freedom he found in America.
