Jang-e jahani sevom (2022)
A Masterpiece!
Why do Iranians make beautiful dramas? World War III is one of the best Iranian movies produced in recent years. The acting was convincing. Premiered a few months ago in Venice's Orizzonti strand, where it won Best Film and Best Actor. The same festival also unveiled "No Bears," from Seyedi's embattled compatriot Jafar Panahi: To say that Iran has a fraught relationship with some of its most revered filmmakers would be putting it extremely lightly. While Seyedi isn't as overtly political here as the likes of Panahi, he's still quite bold: One hopes his film will receive Stateside distribution. Whether censored or celebrated by its government, daring work like this deserves to be seen by the widest audience possible. Don't miss out watching this movie.
