For the thousands of young free spirits who were drawn to the Nova Music Festival in the south of Israel, it was supposed to be a celebration of life, love, freedom, and music. But as the sun rose on October 7th, the fantasy shattered.

Directed by acclaimed Israeli filmmaker Yariv Mozer, and told through the eyes of more than a dozen individuals who endured the brutal onslaught, this powerful documentary meticulously reconstructs the events of that day. Embodying the lost innocence and beauty of youth suddenly cut short and forever scarred by the tragic events that unfolded, their stories capture not only the raw emotions and trauma that they endured, but also the heroism that emerged.

This is a free viewing, with a special thanks to Calgary Jewish Federation, Nitzanim Community Fund Ron & Barb Krell, and Joe & Sondra Spier for their generous sponsorship.

We Will Dance Again is a co-production of Susan Zirinsky’s See It Now Studios with SIPUR and factual producer Bitachon 365, in collaboration with MGM Television, a division of Amazon MGM Studios, BBC Storyville, and HSCC. Broadcasters include BBC Storyville, Paramount+, CBS, and Hot Channel 8. Event booking contact: Go2Films.
