Shot on the frontlines of struggles spanning five continents The Fourth World War is the untold human story of men and women who resist being annihilated in the current global conflict. While our airwaves are crowded with talk of a new war narrated by generals and filmed from the noses of bombs the human face of war is rarely seen. The Fourth World War is a powerful new film from the makers of This Is What Democracy Looks Like, Zapatista, and Black & Gold. It weaves together the stories of movements against empire from Palestine, Iraq, Chiapas, Argentina, South Africa, South Korea to Quebec City and Genoa. A powerful, radical cry from the frontlines of the war on people. This film captures the spirit of resistance: it is as beautiful and global as humanity itself. -Naomi Klein, author of No Logo an affirmation of shared humanity in defiance of nationalism. -The Village Voice a provocation, a challenge and the best cure for cynical chic I've ever seen. -The Indypendent The 4th World War is a masterpiece. . . it explodes with the breadth and intensity of a global movement that was almost unimaginable ten years ago. -R.J. Maccani, Left Turn Magazine The Fourth World War should be the center-piece of all political education for left activists in the present period. It really is that good. -Van Jones, National Executive Director, Ella Baker Center For Human Rights Deep. . . Beautiful. . . Complex and full of both hope and despair. . . Allows us to glimpse a way out of - or through - the pain. Together. - Ramona DeNies, Portland Mercury
