Israel-based production company Sipur is teaming up with Israeli broadcasters HOT Channel 8 and HSCC on a feature documentary about the Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas on the Supernova Music Festival in Kibbutz Re’im. The assault was part of Hamas’ incursion over the border into Israel that resulted in the terrorist group killing more than 1,300 people and triggering the current Israeli-Gaza war.
Yariv Mozer, director of The Devil’s Confession: The Lost Eichman Tapes and Ben Gurion: Epilogue, will direct the film, using exclusive material from participants and key people at the festival. The filmmakers said they aim to present an in-depth look at the festival before, during and after the horrific event and will include interviews with investigators, soldiers and journalists shocked by the carnage they have witnessed, as well as unseen footage gathered from the festival-goers.
“I have seen things in my life. I have lived through wars; I have fought in wars and I have even filmed during a war,” said Mozer in a statement. “But nothing prepared me for the harsh images I have seen in the remains of the massacre that took place at the Nova music festival. I see it as my duty as a documentary filmmaker to bring to the world the testimonies and horrific stories from the survivors of this slaughter. Young women and men whose only sin was their desire for music, and the passion to celebrate free love, spirit and freedom.”
Sipur is presenting the documentary project to potential international buyers at the MIPCOM Cannes TV market this week.
“We have moved quickly to make this documentary because we believe it is imperative to do everything in our power to shine a light on the greatest evil committed against our people since the Holocaust,” said Sipur CEO Emilio Schenker. “The Supernova Music Festival must be seen and understood in its entirety to truly understand the larger meaning of the unspeakable crimes against humanity that occurred there. The world must never forget.”
