We Will Dance Again

This documentary We Will Dance Again is powerful, impactful, sad, and moving. The testimonies of these poor, brave, innocent people are so compelling. What horrific situations they went through. A festival meant for music, peace, and love ended in the most horrific way. These survivors give hope. They are so resilient. Even with their trauma, they will heal, and they will dance again. A must-watch for everyone. Eye-opener. This documentary is so well done.

The cinematography is stunning, capturing both the beauty of the festival and the grim reality that unfolded. The filmmakers did an exceptional job of blending personal stories with broader reflections on grief, loss, and the power of community. This film transcends mere entertainment; it serves as a poignant reminder of our shared humanity and the strength found in solidarity. Each survivor's story is well narrated, allowing viewers to connect deeply with their traumatic experiences and emotions. Additionally, the incredible dedication of the crew shines through, as they carefully convey the depth of sorrow while reminding us of the enduring spirit of hope and resilience.

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.

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!

A must see to understand what radical religion and ideology is capable of doing. Most people don't know what happened and should watch this. Great way to depict it and very emotional. Many people say that there is no context, this documentary has all the context it needs. It is about radical ideology with concrete videos showing true intentions. This is purely about the massacre that took place in a music festival with innocent victims with no political bias. This documentary should be watched by anyone discussing current events in the Middle East today. Very emotional and very graphic depictions of what happened.

"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.
