‘Screams Before Silence’ documentary at Bedford Playhouse

The Bedford Playhouse on Tuesday will present “Screams Before Silence,” a 60-minute documentary on the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack in Israel and the atrocities inflicted upon women and girls at the Nova Music Festival and in surrounding Israeli towns. 

The documentary is directed and produced by former chief operating officer at Meta, Sheryl Sandberg. 

She calls it “the most important work of my life … This is a story that must be told and believed.” 

Two survivors of the attack will be present and introduce the film.

“Screams Before Silence” presents firsthand accounts as told by released hostages, witnesses, first responders and forensic experts of what occurred that day.

According to Sandberg’s production company, “These atrocities have received little scrutiny from human rights organizations and international bodies. Many figures in politics, academia, and the media have sought to minimize or even deny the events.”

The two survivors attending the screening are Tomer Wiener, a 25-year-old student of Chinese medicine from Haifa, and Shoval Roberman, a 23-year-old preschool teacher from Haifa.

For tickets and more information, visit bedfordplayhouse.org. Bedford Playhouse is located at 633 Old Post Road, Bedford.
