We Will Dance Again

"We Will Dance Again" is not just a documentary - it's a defiant heartbeat echoing through history. Directed with raw honesty and profound empathy by Yariv Mozer, this 2024 film brings viewers face-to-face with the unfathomable tragedy of the Nova music festival massacre on October 7, 2023 - and more importantly, with the unbreakable human spirit that rose from its ashes.

Through intimate testimonies, haunting visuals, and a soundtrack that mirrors both loss and hope, the film transcends mere reportage. Mozer doesn't just recount the horrors; he crafts a tapestry of memory, grief, resistance, and above all, resilience. Survivors, families of the abducted, and first responders speak with courage, offering more than facts - they offer humanity.

This international co-production between Israel's Hot, the UK's BBC, and the US's Paramount+ is a masterclass in global storytelling - grounded in local heartbreak but resonating universally. The documentary never strays into sensationalism. Instead, it captures quiet heroism and the desperate beauty of a generation that believed in peace, only to be torn by war - and yet chooses to believe again.

The Emmy for Outstanding Current Affairs Documentary in 2025 was more than deserved. "We Will Dance Again" is a searing reminder that light can emerge from the darkest hours - and that even in grief, music, memory, and unity endure. A must-watch film that will stay with you long after the credits roll.

Heartbreaking, breathtaking. Unbelievable.

A must watch.

The movie manages to capture the pure horror, the fear, the moments of despare, along with fragile hope.

The production of the movie did an amazing job. This documentation is crucial. Through this documentary, the people who were silenced forever by the cruel hands of terrorist, will be able to scream forever as a reminder for the lives that once were, for the joy and the love that were brutally taken away, making our world a darker place.

May the hostages return to their homes, the living to rehabilitation and the ones who have passed to a proper berial.

May they rest in peace, and may their families find some comfort.

This documentary captures the heartless and psychopathic face of hate and evil that exists in the world. Survivors of the terrorist attack narrate the live footage taken at the festival. Front and center, from start to finish, you, the viewer, are there at the festival experiencing the horror, pain, suffering, confusion, and witness the senseless brutality and execution of innocent people. You experience every moment of pure grief, shock, and fear. You will be breathless, angry, terrified, and possibly cry. We must all decide who we are as individuals, the choices we make, and how we treat our fellow humans. Always choose kindness, love, and unity.

It is one of the most haunting yet essential documentaries I've seen in a long time. It doesn't just tell the story of the brutal massacre it really puts you in the shoes of the survivors, the families, and the community that was shattered by the terror of October 7.

The way the documentary handles the trauma especially the horrifying accounts of violence against women is raw. It's not sensationalized, but it is disturbing, as it should be. These stories need to be told, and this film does so with courage and clarity.

I walked away with tears, anger, but also deep respect for the resilience of the people and the message of defiance in the face of hate: "We will dance again."

Please watch it, even if it's hard. Especially because it's hard.

Subtitles are an issue. White on light background difficulties. Major headaches.

That being said, it's the closest you're HOPEFULLY EVER going to get to a REAL WAR AND LIVE FOOTAGE.

Absolutely horrid what those poor kids went through.

And yes they were mostly in their teens and 20's.

My sympathies go out to anyone who is devastated by war and its atrocities.

The bravery these survivors went through to keep fighting and run for safety. All footage is real from cell phones gathered and footage given.

Absolutely NO FAKE SCENES!

My deepest sympathies to those who were slaughtered and especially those who didn't die immediately and were taken hostage. I will remember this film forever.
