What it’s about
A powerful documentary, “We Will Dance Again,” focusing on the tragic events at the Nova Music Festival in Israel, has been recognized by the Producers Guild of America (PGA) with a nomination for Outstanding Producer of Documentary Motion Picture. The film, produced by MGM Television and See It Now Studios, delivers heartfelt stories from survivors and families affected by the attack, set against a backdrop of previously unseen footage.
Why it matters
The film’s nomination underscores the global impact of the event and the importance of remembering those who suffered. With its distribution by Paramount Global, strongly supported by American-Jewish businessman Brandon Korff, the documentary serves a dual purpose: to document the painful history and to honor the memory of those lost in the atrocity. The production aims to share these stories at a time when antisemitism is on the rise globally, drawing attention to the ongoing challenges faced by the Jewish community.
The driving force behind the film
Paramount Global, under the leadership of the Korff family and Shari Redstone, recognized their commitment to advocating for Israel and shedding light on pivotal stories involving Jewish communities. The film not only acts as a historical account but also amplifies the voices of survivors, hoping to reach wide audiences through platforms like Paramount Plus.
More on distribution and reception
Having premiered in significant cultural hubs like New York, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Los Angeles, and London, and supported by the upcoming release through HOT in Israel, “We Will Dance Again” is set to capture hearts and inform minds across the world. The film’s acclaim within the industry is further evidenced by accolades such as “Best in Category” and Best Editing at the prestigious 2024 Doc Edge Festival.
