Details | This film provides a retrospective of 24 hours at the Nova festival in Re'im through the lens of young individuals who endured the horror. October 7, 2023, began like any ordinary day for concertgoers at the Nova Music Festival, located in Re'im, Israel. 3,500 attendees from different countries gathered at that week's festivities, immersing themselves in days of bliss and endless dance parties. Out of nowhere, as the sun rose that early Saturday morning, the world changed forever. What started out as missiles hitting Israel's Iron Dome turned into Hamas terrorists infiltrating the area, shooting everyone in sight. What started out as a dance party, a place of comfort and joy, transformed into a bloodbath. This film is generously sponsored by Lory and Jon Rogers and the Jewish National Fund. This screening is a fundraiser for the Jewish National Fund, which will assist communities in Southern Israel impacted by October 7, and the Jewish Federation of El Paso and Las Cruces. Reservations are required. Ofri Reiner will be the guest speaker. Ofri Reiner is a resilient Israeli survivor of the harrowing Nova massacre. At just 21 years old, she has faced the darkest trials with an indomitable spirit. Yet, Ofri Reiner is more than just a survivor; she is a storyteller who weaves the threads of her family's journey with her own. Through her public speaking, she eloquently shares the profound impact of loss, grief, and trauma, inspiring others to find strength in adversity. Reserve tickets HERE, tickets are $25. There are two screenings, at 3:00 PM MDT & 5:15 PM MDT. |
