At North Shore Congregation Israel in partnership with the Simon Wiesenthal Center

Pre-Registration by Tuesday, May 7th at 12:00 pm is REQUIRED

North Shore Congregation Israel, in partnership with the Simon Wiesenthal Center, invites adults (18+) to a screening of the documentary #NOVA, followed by a panel discussion. As you likely know, the 2023 Nova Festival, held on October 7th in southern Israel, close to the border with Gaza, ended in a devastating tragedy, with the cold-blooded massacre of over 300 partygoers and the abduction of a further 40. During the days following the event, director Dan Pe'er, who was engaged in volunteer efforts to aid survivors, started receiving a multitude of video and audio clips from surviving festival goers. #NOVA chronicles the harrowing atrocities minute by minute, merely through festival survivors’ camera footage, and terrorists’ body camera recordings. With no outside intervention, the raw documentary reveals the true, bone-chilling atrocities of October 7th.

While this event is free to the community, advance pre-registration by 12:00 pm on Tuesday, May 7th is REQUIRED. Walk-ins will NOT be permitted. This event is in person only.

Please do not share this event invitation on social media.

While there is no graphic imagery contained in the film, the raw and unedited footage puts the viewer within the timeline of the atrocities of October 7th in Israel. The psychological and emotional impact of viewing this film can be overwhelming and may not be the right choice for everyone.
