Thania Garcia Israeli production company SIPUR is currently putting together a documentary that will recount the tragic and horrific details of the Oct. 7 terror attack on the Supernova Music Festival by Hamas militants. The assault was led by the extremist terrorist group Hamas which controls millions of Palestinians who live in and along the Gaza Strip.
The group was responsible for the deaths of at least 260 festival-goers at the Supernova electronic dance music festival celebrating the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, just one of their many recent attacks triggering the current Israeli-Gaza war. In association with Israeli broadcaster HOT Channel 8 and HSCC, SIPUR has begun production on a new film documentary telling this story with assistance from award-winning director Yariv Mozer, whose filmography includes “The Devil’s Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes And Ben Gurion: Epilogue.” The documentary is said to chronicle exclusive material from participants and key people at the festival seeking to honor the lives of the victims utilizing interviews with investigators, soldiers and journalists, as well as unseen footage gathered from those who survived the attacks. It will be released in Israel and globally over the coming year.
Mozer said, “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. 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.
