Survivors of the Hamas terrorist attack that took place on Oct. 7 at the Supernova music festival in southern Israel returned to the site of the massacre last month to dance again with social media influencer and Israel activist Montana Tucker as part of a short film that was released on Monday.
The video immediately went viral, garnering over 2.6 million views on Instagram.
More than 360 people were killed at the music festival in Re’im by Hamas terrorists, who also kidnapped 44 others and took them back to the Gaza Strip. Three of the murdered victims were members of the Lilach Friedman Dance Center (LFDC) in Israel and one victim was a mother of a dancer from the studio, Friedman previously shared in an interview with Israel’s Channel 13.
Dancers from LFDC joined survivors of the attack and released hostages in shooting the short film. The project was a collaboration between Tucker, the Combat Antisemitism Movement, and the nonprofit organization SafeHeart, which provides mental health care for survivors of the Supernova attacks. The performance was dedicated to the memory of those murdered by Hamas on Oct. 7, and the survivors featured in the short film include Moran Stella Yanai, Natalie Sanadaji, Michal Ohana, Tamar Shalem, Sima Kushnirovitz, and Ifat Rotem.
In the clip, the dancers do a choreographed dance before reenacting scenes from the attack, such as when music festival-goers had to run for safety and hide from Hamas terrorists who infiltrated the event. Some of the dancers also laid on the ground, acting like they were wounded or killed.
The performance was a part of the dance project titled “NOVA” and a longer version of the dance piece won first place in April at the Dance Grand Prix 2024 competition in Barcelona.
