A documentary chronicling the attack at Supernova festival has been acquired by broadcasters

Supernova Festival took place 6-7 October in Israel, three miles from the border of the Gaza Strip, and was attended by roughly 3,500 people. Around the time of sunrise on Saturday (7 October) morning, Palestinian militants stormed the festival resulting in the death of 364 festival goers, hundreds of others wounded, and 40 people kidnapped by Hamas.

A documentary about the event – Supernova: The Music Festival Massacre – has been acquired by broadcasters in the UK, France, Italy, Germany, and more, as reported by Variety. The documentary is scheduled to premiere in Israel 23 December, and was directed by Reinhardt Beetz and Duki Dror (Inside the Mossad), who also co-directed with award-winning filmmaker Yossi Bloch (The Devil Next Door).

The documentary is said to have survivors of the massacre and first responders share their stories and the horrors they witnessed. The filmmakers also collected footage from CCTV, dash cams, the mobile phones of victims, as well as footage from Hamas' very own cameramen.

“We set out immediately to document the events at the music festival but the full details of this coordinated terror attack are only now coming together, providing a comprehensive story that will undoubtedly resonate for years to come,” said Reinhardt Beetz, CEO of Gebrueder Beetz Filmproduktion.

Duki Dror, co-producer and director, added: “The scenes and testimonies we have documented are almost inconceivable and unprecedented. Working on this has been particularly emotional as the magnitudes of the horrors perpetrated are coming to light,” said Dror.
