The video serves as a damning account of the atrocities committed by Hamas terrorists against Israeli communities on the Gaza border on October 7, killing 1,400 people and kidnapping 240 hostages.
Nattiv, a self-described humanist who advocates a two-state solution, referred back to the Holocaust to highlight his case.
“As a filmmaker, I swore that these images from October 7 would not be forgotten and that the world would see them. Because now the denial starts – it’s fake, it’s not fake (…) We can’t ignore it in silence,” he told i24.

The American Jewish Committee and the Anti-Defamation League helped organize the screenings.
Nattiv shared an edited image of the invitation on social media on Sunday, captioning the post: ‘Because the world needs to know. #neveragainisnow’.

The star also asked her followers to donate money to those affected by the attacks.
In the barbaric attacks of October 7, Hamas fired a barrage of rockets from Gaza and sent fighters across the border, killing 1,400 people and taking about 240 hostages.
More than 270 bodies, mostly young people, were scattered across the site of a music festival on a kibbutz in the Negev desert after Hamas attackers used paragliders to cross the border and fire indiscriminately into the crowd.
At a nearby kibbutz in southern Israel, Hamas terrorists slaughtered at least 40 babies and young children before beheading some of them and shooting their families.
The attack saw about 70 Hamas fighters, armed with machine guns and grenades, storm the normally quiet Kfar Aza kibbutz in southern Israel, killing indiscriminately men, women and children.
The terrorists went on the rampage, killing hundreds of Israelis and taking dozens hostage in places like Kfar Aza, near Sderot. Some houses were almost completely destroyed during the attack with collapsed, burned walls.
The death toll dwarfs the scale of every previous attack by Islamists aside from 9/11. Dozens of Israelis were taken to Gaza as hostages, and some paraded through the streets.
