World War III

Streaming video - 2022

Mohsen Tanabandeh delivers an unforgettable performance as Shakib, an anonymous day laborer still grieving the deaths of his wife and son who’s given a job guarding the set of a film about the Holocaust. The official Iranian entry for Best International Feature Film at the 2023 Academy Awards, director Houman Seyedi’s savage, mysterious thriller/drama WORLD WAR III is one of the darkest, most enigmatic portraits of class inequality, desperation and murder since Lee Chang-dong’s 'Burning' and Bong Joon-ho’s 'Parasite.'
