On August 2, 1943, a small group of Jewish prisoners at the Treblinka death-camp in Poland revolted against their Nazi and Ukrainian guards.

The prisoners burned the camp down, facilitating the escape of 200-300 prisoners, of whom only 40-60 survived the war.

Although not a single leader of the revolt survived, 27 survivors submitted eyewitness testimonies.

Twice-Dead tells the story of Moshe Y. Lubling, the true leader of the Treblinka Revolt, a leader of the Labor Zionists, and the chairman of the legendary Workers' Council in the Czestochowa Ghetto.

Twice-Dead corrects the accepted account of the revolt, ensuring that Moshe Y.

Lubling's heroic life and death will not be forgotten.
