We Will Dance Again

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.

"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.

This film is almost the first evidence about the October 7th massacre . I thought not to watch it following my visit to the exhibition which which was so painful I couldn't stop crying., but I had to see it to have all the brutal horrific details in order to dispel the lies and claims of conspiracy.

Some responders claim that the film was one sided, so I need to ask them if also the Holocaust should be presented from the Nazi angle?

Despite the fact that the editing wasn't perfect, especially because the goal was to include as many recordings made by survivors as possible, I am sure that there was no one who watched it and didn't have tears in the eyes, and didn't understand that they are watching one of the worst most evil events in world history! All this despite the utmost attention by the producers to avoid causing more pain to the families of the murdered, raped, and tortured, as well as to the entire population of Israel, traumatized by the events.

I cried and I am crying now too for the 101 hopefully alive hostages who were dragged by the terrorists to their tunnels in Gaza and are undergoing there impossible suffering during more than a year.

This documentary should be viewed by everyone and everywhere, especially by educators, professionals that work with people, students and heads of faculties at the universities, influencers and policemen, because they must understand why they have to do their job with a clear view of what is acceptable and what is simply inhuman evil!

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 is a documentary of real footage from the Nova Music Festival massacre on October 7, 2023. It includes video clips from survivors and actual footage from the Hamas terrorists.

It's difficult to watch. At first, none of the party goers took the rockets or gunfire that seriously. The Gazans have been attacking Israelis in one way or another for many years, either by knifings, car rammings, shootings, or rocket fire, thanks to the Pay for Slay program run by the PA which pays Gazans and their families to kill Jews. It took a while for anyone to realize that this was not just another attack - this was extremely serious!

Its main focus was on the Nova Music Festival. It was harrowing to see how thousands of young people - who were taken completely off guard at a music festival - had to run and fight for their lives. It showed Shani Louk's body in the back of the truck while the Gazans joyfully cheered and we don't know if she was alive or dead at that point. Thankfully it didn't show Naama Levy who had blood on the back of her pants and her Achilles tendons slit so she couldn't run. I really didn't want to see that again. It only briefly touched on the murders and kidnappings at the Kibbutzim.

It does go into how the survivors have coped this past year. It was a difficult, but important, watch. It's new and it's streaming on Paramount+ if anyone is interested in seeing it.
