I researched the meaning of the dance: - "The repetitive sitting, standing, and shaking evokes davening in synagogue. The piles of thrown clothing suggest photographs from the Holocaust. The dancers toil through the choreography and their struggle could be read as a historical homage to the building of Israel." - "When Naharin decided to change the movement, one dancer, Erez Levy, did not hear the instructions and fell as before. His error was incorporated into the dance in the role of “the faller,” who sits at the end of the circle, falling to the floor at the end of each wave."
I wish who ever posted this would put your comment up into the description for all to read because it's frustrating watching this dance without knowing it's symbolism meaning
I saw this piece live in Israel in the show Anafaza and my jaw was dropped the entire time with tears streaming down my face. I have never had that reaction in a theatre and I am a theatre artist. It was transcendental. In the version I watched they stripped down to their bras and underwear and the "faller" was towards the end of the row, but was not the last dancer. The faller towards the end, but not at the end was more visually compelling and surprising for me and brought a new layer of meaning for me. This is such powerful art.
I had to watch this for my modern dance class and once I saw clothes being thrown in the center, I started getting a eerie feeling and images of the Holocaust. what a meaningful piece.
👆Absolutely mind blowing abstract dance performance by the Israeli people... this is one community species that will survive at the end... it has everything... religious spiritual abstract intelligence absolute guts balanced human consciousness... these guys are absolutely amazing... there is definitely something different with the Israeli people.. when everyone dies (total annihilation may happen in the distant future) these people have all the matter, material and means to survive. Amazing Israelis... 🤔
I was drawn here by the use of this music and dance in the film 7 DAYS IN ENTEBBE. I thought it was an absolutely brilliant integration of modern dance into another artform. I was literally in tears in the movie theater from the power that your dance brought to the film's finale, when the IDF rescues the hostages. Masterful work from everyone involved in creating the dance and from the filmmakers in working it into their production.
The juxtaposition of the combat at the terminal with the music and dance shook me, waking feelings repressed since I saw bodies delivered under our control tower in Vietnam during the '68 Tet offensive, tears wasted on weeping.
I'm so glad someone else was as moved as I was by this sequence. A lot of the reviews of the film criticized the intercutting of the dance with the raid, or even made fun of it, but I think true art needs to be daring like this, and if some people didn't understand it, and choose to respond by dismissing it, that's their loss. This was breathtaking filmmaking.
The song and it's tune actually we're not composed for the movie. The song is hundreds of not thousands of years old and the tune goes back many generations.
This performance was absolutely terrific! Bravo to all!!! Nearly 50 years ago (1978, I think), I saw the Batsheva Dance Company perform in Santa Barbara, Calif, at the outdoor S.B. County Bowl, and it was wonderful beyond words. The greatest moment: I had privilege of seeing the phenomenal Valery and Galina Panov dance to a song called "Belong" -- it was achingly, heartbreakingly, exquisitely beautiful, and I've never forgotten it. NOTE: The Panovs were under house arrest in the USSR for ages in the early-to-mid-seventies -- because they wanted to immigrate to Israel and the USSR didn't want to let such famous and important dancers go. The Panovs went on a hunger strike and a worldwide outcry demanding that the USSR let them go ensued. Finally the Panovs were released by the USSR. They toured with Batsheva after some time to recover, and I had the great honor to see them. I wish I could find a video of this performance... but it does live on in my memories with a great deal of love.
I've admired this dance since I first saw it, and since my cancer diagnosis and start of treatment, I watch this video almost daily. This is art of great beauty and power.
I saw this piece in the new show ARISE in Berlin - they changed the Seating Order at some point to fit even more dancers. This choreography is unforgettable, the music is mesmerizing. When it ended live, I had to get up on my feet and cheer! The performance here is equally amazing, what a beautiful piece of art!
I only hear this in " 7 days of entebbe" from my tv where i was eating lunch, this song attracted my attention. How beautiful and unique this piece is.

This version is the closest to the original version I danced in 1995 in the piece "Anaphasa" in Tel Aviv with the Batsheva dance Company . The version getting faster with live drumming is still much more impressive . Among all the choreography i learned during my career , this is the only one i still remember and want to dance again and again ...Even if my neck would hurt really bad .... Thanks for that and a lot more Ohad .
@@merylrakoto It's not played in any company anymore ... Ohad did other version of this piece ( minus 1 , 2 , 3.....)It'a sade because it was really a strong piece ....

Translation of the man in the beginning: The illusion/deception of strength, and the thin line that divides madness/craziness and serenity. The panic that is behind the laughter, and the coexistence of fatigue and elegance
I read that Ohad originally had everyone falling and then he changed the choreography and one guy didn't hear but when Ohad saw it, he liked it and kept it in.
This dance is now part of the new grand Show of the Friedrichstadtpalast in Berlin Germany and the opening of Act 2. So impressive and breathtaking piece of art! Glad this is part of the show!
Strikingly beautiful, evocative, and profoundly meaningful in it’s continuous rising and falling, as demonstrative of the relentless perseverance of the Jewish people throughout time.
Just note - the movie "7 Days in Entebbe" is the worst movie about the "Yehonatan operation" / "Udanda operation" / "Entebbe raid" / "Operation Thunderbolt" - it was made by a WOKE director who idealized the terrorists and twisted the facts - quite hated in Israel .
@@dynastyflier an earlier version of the dance had everyone falling. The routine was changed and he didn't hear the change and fell like he thought he was supposed to. The director decided to keep it in the dance.
if i´m not wrong, what he says at the very beggining is the following: ... [Hebrew:] "אשליה הכח וקף דק שמפריד בין שיגעון ושפיות הפאניקה שמאחורי הצחוק בדו קיום של עייפות ןאלגנטייות" [English translation:] "Illusion is the power and the thin stroke that separates madness and sanity. The panic behind laughter is a coexistence of fatigue and elegance" [Traducción en Español:] "La ilusión es el poder y el trazo fino que separa la locura y la cordura. El pánico detrás de la risa es una convivencia de fatiga y elegancia" [Phonetic Transcription:] "Ashlaia hakoaj vekaf dak shemafrid bein shigahon veshfiut. Hapanika shemeajorei hatzjok bedu kiom shel haiefut vehelegantiut" i´m a little bit rusty in my hebrew, but i think it goes this way... enjoy!
you should read the historical of shayaret matkal plan for this operation and also for operation Solomon . The muvie is base on the terrorist story not military .
i am amazed how the director/ choreographer trained the young dancers' mind to be one, very one. Their focuses are all there and become one. I admire the choreographer.
This video deserves more likes. I saw it a few ysars ago, and i've been thinking about it ever since. It evokes a kind of visceral, primal feeling. I saw so many people commenting about 7 days in Entebbe, I think I'll watch it.
I think that the movie has had a more impact in cause of this music: I loved the choice of mixing the scene of the assault with it, it gave me more emotion, more sense of justice. I want to excuse me for my bad english, I don't know if I have been able ti explain my feelings
I saw this recently by Atlanta Ballet and it was the best performance of my life. I’m still thinking about it weeks later. Mr. Naharin is my greatest inspiration now. Thank you for creating such amazing dance.
i love the choreo - i can watch this all day not get bored but excited about the dance and watch the last guy keep falling over and over again and the guy who jumps on the chair and he is super cute
Immense in scale and fathomless in depth. This is one of the most powerful and evocative performances I have had the fortune to see. Thank you to all the artists, seen and unseen in this epic performance. Sincerely, thank you.
From time to time I need to come back and watch it again!! It's such an impactful performance, the actors' delivery is visceral... A 7-minute act with musicality and storytelling deeper than many 2-hour movies. The voice at the beginning of the narrative always gives me goosebumps, and when the song starts it's like a punch.. I don't understand what the lyrics say, but it hits me to the core! It would be nice if they made a version with subtitles, the auto-translation doesn't work...Love this work!!👏👏👏
Your group's performance in "7 Days In Entebbe" was ABSOLUTELY MESMERIZING! It is an experience i will NEVER EVER forget. Thank you for sharing with the world your heritage and your artistry.
I took a choreography class my sophomore year of college, and this was one of the videos we studied as an example of how to play with building layers in choreography. When I first saw it, I thought it was neat, but not terribly relevant to the type of dance I was interested in. But the more I see, the more I absolutely fall in love with it, it's such a beautiful and complex piece.
I'm a current sophomore in college analyzing this piece to write a paper for my dance class, it's such a complex piece the more and more I'm researching it
I get addicted to this song and the dance after watching 7 days in Entebbe, i do not understand or speak Hebrew but i sing it to myself almost everyday or when ever i see Netayanhu on TV. I love the choreography because its so powerful and unique. I also love another Hebrew song they played as the sound track of the movie The Red Sea Diving Resort. I will be happz to listen to more Hebrew song if i know. I have been playing the two since morning in the office
Хоть вы меня и не понимаете но данный танец и песня это просто 10 из 10. После просмотра фильма " Операция Шаровая Молния " я решил добавить эту песню себе в плейлист.
I saw this live at SUNY Purchase back in I think it was 2009 and it has stuck with me all these years. I remember just literally falling off the edge of my seat as the tension kept building and the piece got more and more frenetic. Along with Crystal Pite’s “The Statement”, this is one of the few dance pieces that have been so powerful I can replay them in my head years later. Just incredible 👏🏽
I watched this in Palast as the second act. I'm not a native german speaker. And it's first now when going down in the comments section that I realise it was in hebrew. Which is very interresting. This meant that most of the German audience would not know of the lyrics either. The entire play being a mystery When I sat and watched it. After having seen the narrative from the prior plays in "Arise", before act 2. I believed this to be a visual representation of the main character, having returned to conformity. Yet he is unable to follow the demands of conformity. The ones that obey and listen in the heavy transe. Making their sacrifices to whatever has them in a bind. Kinda like working overtime in a job that you feel is necessary to stay in So the main character is failing in becoming a part of the wheel. Forcing him to reflect. Which is a blessing in disguise. As he has to come to terms that he has to face reality of his ambitions. No matter the ups and downs.
Mind blowing. This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen or heard. I hope I can watch this live someday somewhere. ❤️ Meanwhile, the song is on loop. 😊
this work speaks to me as an American Jew at the end of my career at a DoD agency after 6 years. This work is timely to me. Your vision and dance company are magnificent.
film was good but not great, but the dancing was great and this piece and the male dancer at the end of the film will stay in my memory for a long time. Mesmerising.
You who are not crushed by peer pressure and think for yourself are blessed among all people. You are the head of yourself, and not the tail of the rat forever dragged behind, through whatever filth lies in the path or is excreted. You rise above by thinking for yourself. Thank you for this.
Absolutely Amazing !!!! Kudos to the people who could create such absolutely fantastic unimaginable abstract performances... You guys are truly amazing...
I saw The Hubbard Street Dance Co perform this piece way back 2002ish. It stuck with me and I have been searching for it ever since! So glad to finally see it again. Thanks for posting!
A lot of people are here bc of 7 days in Entebbe. FYI this song was not composed for the movie. It is actually hundreds or even thousands of years old and is found at the end of the Passover Haggadah. The tune for the song as nothing new as well. It has been used for this song for generations.
The one who jumps on the chair !! So quickly, without looking…. Repeatdely!! Wowowowow!! All of it, amazing!
very talented
Can you imagine how many times he had to fall off of the chair to get it right?
I saw this today at Greece because the choreographer was a guest star and i was left stunned. As a dancer myself i have never seen anything alike
i danced this yesterday in greece for a little show our academy did for our family and friends
It’s amazing ❤❤❤
lucky you :-) !
Çok güzel olmuş
I enjoy the dancers fr Israel
I researched the meaning of the dance:
- "The repetitive sitting, standing, and shaking evokes davening in synagogue. The piles of thrown clothing suggest photographs from the Holocaust. The dancers toil through the choreography and their struggle could be read as a historical homage to the building of Israel."

Why does the last person keep falling down?? Whats the significance...
I read that Ohad originally had everyone falling and then he changed the choreography and one guy didn't hear but when Ohad saw it, he liked it and kept it in.
This dance is now part of the new grand Show of the Friedrichstadtpalast in Berlin Germany and the opening of Act 2. So impressive and breathtaking piece of art!
Glad this is part of the show!
I saw it there, too. Behind me people singing along in Hebrew; made me happy to see/hear this in Berlin.
Very important for this to be in Berlin! What a gesture of unity
I also shaw it there for the first time.
Isaw it too, it was amazing
This performance is a masterpiece
Strikingly beautiful, evocative, and profoundly meaningful in it’s continuous rising and falling, as demonstrative of the relentless perseverance of the Jewish people throughout time.
That guitar gives it the extra umpf that makes the music incredible! And the choreography is just amazing!
The most incredible moment of the film. Great dancers and production!
Just note - the movie "7 Days in Entebbe" is the worst movie about the "Yehonatan operation" / "Udanda operation" / "Entebbe raid" / "Operation Thunderbolt" - it was made by a WOKE director who idealized the terrorists and twisted the facts - quite hated in Israel .
I hope the guy on the right gets paid a bit extra.
I feel his performance is payment enough.
Why is he kept falling down?
@@dynastyflier he didn't practice enough
@@dynastyflier an earlier version of the dance had everyone falling. The routine was changed and he didn't hear the change and fell like he thought he was supposed to. The director decided to keep it in the dance.
Benur Anouk you made me laugh
This is simply chilling. Goes straight to the heart.
if i´m not wrong, what he says at the very beggining is the following: ...
[Hebrew:]
"אשליה הכח וקף דק שמפריד בין שיגעון ושפיות הפאניקה שמאחורי הצחוק בדו קיום של עייפות ןאלגנטייות"
[English translation:]
"Illusion is the power and the thin stroke that separates madness and sanity. The panic behind laughter is a coexistence of fatigue and elegance"
[Traducción en Español:]
"La ilusión es el poder y el trazo fino que separa la locura y la cordura. El pánico detrás de la risa es una convivencia de fatiga y elegancia"
[Phonetic Transcription:]
"Ashlaia hakoaj vekaf dak shemafrid bein shigahon veshfiut. Hapanika shemeajorei hatzjok bedu kiom shel haiefut vehelegantiut"
i´m a little bit rusty in my hebrew, but i think it goes this way... enjoy!
Thank you!!
Gracias ,obrigado!
Not exactly...
Outstanding job! That helps me to not only hear this presentation with my ears but listen with my soul that Jesus created and saved for me.
Danke!
7 days in Entebbe brought me here
And it's worth it.
Me too! Amazing film...
me too! great dance company.
Same
you should read the historical of shayaret matkal plan for this operation and also for operation Solomon . The muvie is base on the terrorist story not military .
Too bad it flopped. It was awesome.
7 days in Entebbe brought me here, admiration of the group's talent, I'm appreciative of the music
Masterpiece. A very powerful piece of work. Have watched 100 times and still keep coming back for more.
same here too.... there is definitely something different and out of the world with these guys..
Très beau et impressionnant. Je l'ai vu à Montréal. Beau souvenir.❤ Paix 🙏
This was absolutely incredible.. It was openly forecasted.. Sensational and a breath of fresh air. Well done all of you.
** standing ovation
i am amazed how the director/ choreographer trained the young dancers' mind to be one, very one. Their focuses are all there and become one. I admire the choreographer.
Just watched this being performed live yesterday in Croatia. Absolutely amazing song, choreography and performance.
Eu também não canso de ver esse vídeo.... Vejo... Vejo... Vejo. Thanks!!
This dance is totally perfect! Impressive!
Margarita Kondratiuk hi
I still watch this performance 6 years after... still captivating and enchanting! What a great work!
This video deserves more likes. I saw it a few ysars ago, and i've been thinking about it ever since. It evokes a kind of visceral, primal feeling. I saw so many people commenting about 7 days in Entebbe, I think I'll watch it.
Ill admit it, "7 days in Entebbe" would have been NOTHING without this dance
Agreed.
Yes!
I think that the movie has had a more impact in cause of this music: I loved the choice of mixing the scene of the assault with it, it gave me more emotion, more sense of justice. I want to excuse me for my bad english, I don't know if I have been able ti explain my feelings
i agree, they should redo that movie
Areed
I saw this recently by Atlanta Ballet and it was the best performance of my life. I’m still thinking about it weeks later. Mr. Naharin is my greatest inspiration now. Thank you for creating such amazing dance.
I watch this often, bought the music. Thank You all for sharing 👍🏼
i love the choreo - i can watch this all day not get bored but excited about the dance and watch the last guy keep falling over and over again and the guy who jumps on the chair and he is super cute
One of the most powerful pieces I have seen for sure! Incredible!!!
Whenever I feel low in life, I listen to this song. It gave my strength to stand up, fight back and Learn from mistakes.
Immense in scale and fathomless in depth. This is one of the most powerful and evocative performances I have had the fortune to see. Thank you to all the artists, seen and unseen in this epic performance. Sincerely, thank you.
From time to time I need to come back and watch it again!! It's such an impactful performance, the actors' delivery is visceral... A 7-minute act with musicality and storytelling deeper than many 2-hour movies. The voice at the beginning of the narrative always gives me goosebumps, and when the song starts it's like a punch.. I don't understand what the lyrics say, but it hits me to the core! It would be nice if they made a version with subtitles, the auto-translation doesn't work...Love this work!!👏👏👏
Your group's performance in "7 Days In Entebbe" was ABSOLUTELY MESMERIZING! It is an experience i will NEVER EVER forget. Thank you for sharing with the world your heritage and your artistry.
Seeing it live was something else just amazing
this dance tears me up, even without the translations of the theme. WOW. So evocative and powerful.
I took a choreography class my sophomore year of college, and this was one of the videos we studied as an example of how to play with building layers in choreography. When I first saw it, I thought it was neat, but not terribly relevant to the type of dance I was interested in.
But the more I see, the more I absolutely fall in love with it, it's such a beautiful and complex piece.
I'm a current sophomore in college analyzing this piece to write a paper for my dance class, it's such a complex piece the more and more I'm researching it
Eretz Israel !!
I get addicted to this song and the dance after watching 7 days in Entebbe, i do not understand or speak Hebrew but i sing it to myself almost everyday or when ever i see Netayanhu on TV. I love the choreography because its so powerful and unique. I also love another Hebrew song they played as the sound track of the movie The Red Sea Diving Resort. I will be happz to listen to more Hebrew song if i know. I have been playing the two since morning in the office
Хоть вы меня и не понимаете но данный танец и песня это просто 10 из 10. После просмотра фильма " Операция Шаровая Молния " я решил добавить эту песню себе в плейлист.
Я тоже
I have studied with the talented Ohad Naharin at high school in Tivon.Great pride.
7 Days in Entebbe brought me here.
Shalom aleichem!
يعني انت معندكش مشكلة مع الصهاينة خالص ؟
Waalekum Salaam...
I saw this live at SUNY Purchase back in I think it was 2009 and it has stuck with me all these years. I remember just literally falling off the edge of my seat as the tension kept building and the piece got more and more frenetic. Along with Crystal Pite’s “The Statement”, this is one of the few dance pieces that have been so powerful I can replay them in my head years later. Just incredible 👏🏽
Pour moi, une puissance et une simplicité inégalées dans le monde de la danse contemporaine!
Beautifully choreographed and performed, totally obsessed with the song
So grateful to "7 Days in Entebbe" for introducing me to this amazing troupe when I am making arrangements to visit Israel!
സിനിമ കണ്ടപ്പോ തെട്ട് ഈ പാട്ട് എത്ര കേട്ടു എന്ന് അറിയില്ല. നല്ല കിണ്ണം കാച്ചിയ പാട്ട് 👌👌👌👌👌
best comment ever !
What a fine piece of art. Thanks to 7 days in Entebbe for bringing me here.
till this day one of the best most powerful things i've seen on stage
I watched this in Palast as the second act. I'm not a native german speaker. And it's first now when going down in the comments section that I realise it was in hebrew. Which is very interresting. This meant that most of the German audience would not know of the lyrics either. The entire play being a mystery
When I sat and watched it. After having seen the narrative from the prior plays in "Arise", before act 2. I believed this to be a visual representation of the main character, having returned to conformity. Yet he is unable to follow the demands of conformity. The ones that obey and listen in the heavy transe. Making their sacrifices to whatever has them in a bind. Kinda like working overtime in a job that you feel is necessary to stay in
So the main character is failing in becoming a part of the wheel. Forcing him to reflect. Which is a blessing in disguise. As he has to come to terms that he has to face reality of his ambitions. No matter the ups and downs.
The greatest piece in the entire period of contemporary dance
Mind blowing. This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen or heard. I hope I can watch this live someday somewhere. ❤️
Meanwhile, the song is on loop. 😊
Outstanding & gorgeous presentation!!
this work speaks to me as an American Jew at the end of my career at a DoD agency after 6 years. This work is timely to me. Your vision and dance company are magnificent.
Thank you for your service. God bless you and family in ALL you do.

film was good but not great, but the dancing was great and this piece and the male dancer at the end of the film will stay in my memory for a long time. Mesmerising.
The dance conposition was far far better than the quality of movie for sure
One of my favorite video of dance
Only here after I searched for the music, as it featured in the 2018 film Entebbe. Great performance, music et al.
Every day I come here to watch this. Such a spectacular performance!
Bad idea you can’t take it of your brain... i resist to see it and it is difficult.
awesome Masterpiece! I saw it in Berlin Friedrichstadtpalast - Arise Grandshow - my greatest Highlight of all Shows
So obsessed with this piece
Saw it years ago. One of the most powerful performances I've ever seen. I'd love to see it live again.
Epic and powerful performance. Can see over and over again.
It makes me shiver... like literally - I got goosebumps...amazing...
This dance is in the movie,”Seven Days in Entebbe.” I think that the music is very moving.
Is the dance in the movie or just the song?
HippieChick02 the dance, repeatedly
Why is the last person fall on the ground?
Magnífico! Inspirador! Obrigada!
Fantastic Nd impressive performance.
Passover wouldn't be Passover without watching this video. April 2024.
Очень крутой танец
I'm gonna have to change something for next year's seder now
Jews are awesome in just about everything. God bless em. And this is coming from an Afghan Muslim.
You who are not crushed by peer pressure and think for yourself are blessed among all people. You are the head of yourself, and not the tail of the rat forever dragged behind, through whatever filth lies in the path or is excreted. You rise above by thinking for yourself. Thank you for this.
✊rise up together to create peace
Thank you for understanding
Long live Afghanistan from the state of Israel
I hope your crisis with the talibanes and the Americans will end one day
@Mike Ken technically the Romans did that
So hate the Italians
ах! яка потужна інсталяція! Аж хочеться долучитись до такого народу
Thanks to the 7 Days in Entebbe movie, I can't get this song and performance out of my head anymore.
Thank you.
This music and lyrics are amazing, although I barely understand a few hebrew words. And chapeau bas for the choreography too! Toda raba Batsheva!
Absolutely Amazing !!!! Kudos to the people who could create such absolutely fantastic unimaginable abstract performances... You guys are truly amazing...
Brilliant dance form I just can't stop watching it
God bless Israel from the Philippines.
I can watch this eternally 😢❤
I saw The Hubbard Street Dance Co perform this piece way back 2002ish. It stuck with me and I have been searching for it ever since! So glad to finally see it again. Thanks for posting!
בתור בוגר בית ספר א.ד.גורדון בתל אביב אני חייב לכם תודה ענקית על משהו שהוא פשוט חלק מהמסורת של פסח עבורי, תמיד תענוג לחזור לכיאורוגרפיה הזו.
Absolutely incredible performance + choreography ❤😊😊😊😊😊
Congratulation, performance wonderful
Best of dances ive seen today ❤
wow i got goosebumps! such a strong piece
also all the hidden meaning of taking a passsover iconic song, intriguing!
Watched the movie. I just had to see the full performance. So good!
A lot of people are here bc of 7 days in Entebbe. FYI this song was not composed for the movie. It is actually hundreds or even thousands of years old and is found at the end of the Passover Haggadah.
The tune for the song as nothing new as well. It has been used for this song for generations.
I am from India and did not understand a single word.... But I still found it extremely awesome..... hypnotizing
Yuval Merhav thanks brother
the whole dance is absolutely majestic
but my god that climax at 6:55... so damn good
