At the 79th Venice International Film Festival, "World War III" competed for the Orizzonti Award and won both the Orizzonti Award for Best Actor and the Orizzonti Award for Best Film.

According to the "World War III" story synopsis, Shakib (Mohsen Tanabandeh) is a day worker who is homeless after losing his wife and son in an earthquake in the past. He has been seeing Ladan (Mahsa Hejazi), a deaf and mute prostitute, for the past couple of years. He discovers that the building site where he works is the backdrop for a movie depicting the crimes committed by Hitler during World War II.

He receives a house and a once-in-a-lifetime chance, despite all odds. Ladan visits his place of employment to seek assistance and a location after learning about his movie part and the house. Shakib's attempt to conceal her fails, endangering his opportunity to make it big.
