The documentary Noga, which premiered at the 2026 Tribeca Festival, follows Israeli musician Noga Erez at a defining moment in her life and career. Directed by Jono and Benji Bergmann, the film traces Erez’s work and relationship with her partner and collaborator, Ori Rousso, as they record, tour, and build an international audience. The October 7 attacks and the war in Gaza transform the course of the film, bringing grief, uncertainty, online abuse, cultural boycotts, and pressure to take public positions into their creative and personal lives. Even as those pressures intensify, Erez and Rousso continue making music and performing, using their work to process events around them while sustaining a demanding partnership. Supported by the Blavatnik Family Foundation, with Leonard Blavatnik serving as Executive Producer, Noga examines the intertwined questions of art, politics, identity, and responsibility.
