Paramount+ began streaming this week a documentary in which more than a dozen survivors of the Nova Music Festival massacre on Oct. 7 share their stories about how they managed to survive the deadly Hamas terrorist attack.
The Paramount+ Original documentary “We Will Dance Again” features interviews with various survivors of the Hamas massacre, many of whom recorded their experiences on their cell phones as the terrorist attack unfolded around them in Re’im, near Israel’s border with the Gaza Strip. They talk about the murder and abduction that took place that day, hiding for their lives as terrorists murdered people around them, their friends who were killed and abducted in the attack, and what life is like now after the traumatic experience.
One survivor tells the camera, “I’m never going to be the person that I was before the seventh of October.” Another survivor said, “Every single person that I lost on that day would have made the hell out of this life and for them, I need to continue living.”
The documentary also includes graphically violent footage by Hamas-led terrorists during the attack. The film’s director Yariv Mozer told The Hollywood Reporter such graphic videos were featured in the documentary “to be able to show how enormous the scale of this attack was and the brutality of these atrocities against people who couldn’t defend themselves.” The film’s producer, Susan Zirinsky – who is the former president of CBS News and longtime executive producer of its news magazine 48 Hours – told the publication that “We Will Dance Again” is “not a political film,” just “a record of history.”
During their rampage across southern Israel on Oct. 7, Hamas-led Palestinian terrorists murdered 1,200 people and took over 250 hostages. At the Nova Festival alone, nearly 400 people were killed and approximately 40 others kidnapped.
“We Will Dance Again” is streaming on Paramount+ exclusively. Watch the trailer below.
