Video tribute to Jewish victims of Paris attack

Over a year has passed, yet the memories of the victims killed during the terrorist attack at the Hyper Cacher supermarket in Paris, have not been forgotten.

Israeli musician Shai Barak has produced a music video, together with artists and musicians in multiple countries and languages using the slogan: Je Suis Juif. The song was written by Tsippy Manovich.

The slogan became the symbol of the attack around the world and especially in France last year, including at a mass protest in which Frenchmen held up signs showing their support for the victims. 

Barak approached popular Jewish singers from across the globe, and together they recorded a pop song that they hope will send out a message of Jewish unity. The song was written and sung in 3 languages: Hebrew, English and French.

All the singers from around the world filmed themselves using smart-phones in "Selfie" format.

The video, which was the brainchild of Jerusalemite journalist Zvika Klein, who previously produced a video of 10 hours of silent walking in Paris as a Jew, hopes to be the first Jewish Selfie music video. It is aimed at uniting Jews from all denominations around the world and is therefore sung in multiple languages.

Among the singers from Israel: Gad Elbaz, Ishay Lapidot, Aaron Razel, Mendy Jeruffi, Shai Barak, JEW2, Dou Reim, Udi Ulman, Amiran& Arik Dvir, The chief IDF cantor Shai Abramson,The Buba Myses Puppet rock band and more.

From the US and the UK: Lipa Schmeltzer & Matt Dub, Benny Freidman, Berry Weber, Eli Gerstner, Shloime Gertner, Ely Katz and more.

From France: Nemouel Harroch, Avraham David, Rap sensation Avraham Moyal and more.

"Like all Jews around the world, I was touched to see thousands of French people holding signs with the words 'I'm a Jew', at Republic Square," Barak said in a statement. 

"I was looking to produce a song that would express this feeling of Jewish unity, around the world. I hope that this song will become an anthem among all the Jews, everywhere, especially during this difficult time for Jews in Israel and in the Diaspora."
