An upcoming new film “To the Last Breath” promises to offer an intimate look at one family’s harrowing experience during Hamas’ massacre against Israel on October 7.

The documentary centers on the true story of Noam Tibon, a retired Israeli general whose quiet life as a grandfather was shattered on that fateful day.

As Hamas terrorists launched a coordinated assault on Israel from land, sea, and air, Tibon found himself facing an unimaginable situation.

In a display of remarkable courage, he managed to rescue his family while all hell broke loose around him.

“Noam Tibon’s act of courage, heroism and selflessness shook me to the core, and we want to share his story with the world. This film is not about politics; it’s about humanity, family and sacrifice,” documentarian Barry Avrich tells Deadline.

“In one day, one extraordinary man reversed the fate of his family and inspired the world.”

Tibon himself has agreed to participate in the project, offering audiences a true firsthand account of that tragic day.

“I am honored to share my journey in this documentary. It’s more than just a recounting of events; it’s an opportunity to share the truth about October 7th, the depth of the tragedy alongside the stories of the heroes who showed up,” he said.
