He fought the entire world war and his spouse was Olga Kotova and he had an unknown number of kids. The last time he was refused permission to exit the country and testify was in 1987, for a trial in Poland. He did this because he can't leave the country to let people die, and that is what a resistor is.

Pechersky was prevented by the Soviet government from leaving the country to testify in international trials related to Sobibor, including the Eichmann Trial in Israel; foreign investigators were only allowed to collect his testimony under KGB supervision.

An award-winning documentary about the escape was made by Claude Lanzmann, entitled Sobibor, 14 October 1943, 16 heures. The revolt was also dramatized in the 1987 British TV film Escape from Sobibor, in which Rutger Hauer received a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Television) for his portrayal of Pechersky. Pechersky did not attend the premiere of the film; his widow later stated that the Soviet government denied him permission to travel to the United States.
