THE FOURTH WORLD WAR is a powerful new film that weaves together stories from Palestine, Iraq, Chiapas, Argentina, South Africa, South Korea to Quebec City and Genoa. The product of over two years of filming, The Fourth World War is a new kind of film for a new world. Directed by the award winning New York-based Big Noise Films, and narrated by Tony Award winner Suheir Hammad and Singer Michael Franti of Spearhead, it is a story of hope and human connection in the face of a war that shatters and divides. After a sold-out premiere weekend in New York and an incredible six week run at the 500 seat Victoria Theatre in San Francisco, the first wave of rave reviews, festivals and awards are in, and THE FOURTH WORLD WAR begins an ambitious, 50 city tour.



"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



"Inspirational. Essential. THE FOURTH WORLD WAR documents the history of the future before it is born. . . and while we can still do something about it."
-Peter Wintonick, Internatonal Editor, POV (Point-of-View Magazine)



"Daring. . . courageous. . . heart-pounding. . ."
Patricia R. Zimmermann, author, States of Emergency: Documentaries, Wars, Democracies

"Startling Frontline Filmmaking!"
Marc Mahon, The Oregonian



"The 4th World War is a masterpiece. I cried the first time I watched 4WW. And in the second viewing I cried even more. . . it explodes with the breadth and intensity of a global movement that was almost unimaginable ten years ago."
-R.J. Maccani, Left Turn Magazine



"an affirmation of shared humanity in defiance of nationalism."
-The Village Voice
