In two years, a fresh documentary about the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel is scheduled to air on The History Channel. The film is directed by Dan Reed, known for his work on "Leaving Neverland."
The HISTORY Channel is set to air a poignant and compelling documentary titled "A Day in October" on October 4th at 8:15 PM, marking its German premiere. This 68-minute film, directed by Emmy-winning filmmaker Dan Reed, offers a detailed chronological account of the devastating terrorist attack that occurred on October 7, 2023, in Israel.
The documentary focuses on the events of the attack from the perspective of survivors from Kibbutz Be'eri, a community situated on the border with the Gaza Strip and at the epicenter of the violence. "A Day in October" delves into the motivations of the men who committed the heinous acts, using various sources such as surveillance videos, cell phone footage, WhatsApp messages, and material from the attackers.
The documentary features heart-wrenching testimonies from survivors like Hadas Dagan, a hostage who lost her husband in the attack, and Nirit Hunwald, a hospital worker in Be'eri who managed to survive by hiding in a room in the clinic. Einat Kornfeld, wife of Nirit Hunwald, was in a safe room in Be'eri with her children during the attack.
Tom Hand, father of an eight-year-old girl, lost 100 people from his kibbutz community in the attacks. The documentary also utilises GoPro cameras that the attackers used to record the course of the attack.
"A Day in October" follows in the footsteps of "Superpower - Sean Penn in Ukraine," another documentary dealing with a violent attack of international relevance, which The HISTORY Channel premiered in the German-speaking world last year.
"A Day in October" (original title: "One Day in October") is produced by AMOS Pictures. The documentary will be available to stream and on demand via HISTORY Play and WOW/Sky. On its second anniversary, the documentary will be shown again on The HISTORY Channel on October 7th at 10:45 PM.
