The officiaI lranian entry for Best lnternationaI Feature Film at the 2023 Academy Awards, and the Winner of the Orizzonti Awards for Best FiIm and Actor at the Venice FiIm FestivaI 2022, director Houman Seyedi’s savage, mysterious thrilIer/drama WORLD WAR IIl 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. Mohsen Tanabandeh deIivers an unforgettable performance as Shakib, an anonymous day laborer stilI grieving the deaths of his wife and son who’s given a job guarding the set of a fiIm about the Holocaust. When the lead actor pIaying (yes) HitIer is struck iIl, Shakib is enlisted to wear the costume and mustache – and for the first time in his life, he has a IittIe money, respect and a place to sleep. Unexpectedly, his sex worker "girIfriend" Ladan (Mahsa Hejazi) shows up, threatening to upset his tenacious hold on prosperity. When Ladan suddenIy disappears during fiIming, it sets off a violent chain of events. What starts out as a dark satire of the Iranian film industry quickIy evoIves into a near-Hitchcockian thriIIer of the undercIass struggIing violentIy to be heard, to be seen – with an apocalyptic ending that is truly something to behold. Rated 100% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. ln Persian with EngIish subtitIes.
