Tourné sur cinq continents durant plus de deux ans, The Fourth World War fait l’inventaire des nombreux mouvements citoyens qui ont pris naissance un peu partout sur la planète, comme pour écrire une nouvelle page d’histoire composée d’actes de résistance au néo-libéralisme. Filmé simultanément aux premières lignes des conflits au Mexique, en Argentine, en Afrique du Sud, en Palestine, en Corée, en Afghanistan et en Irak, mais aussi lors des grands rassemblements de Seattle, de Gênes et de Québec, ce film engagé témoigne des luttes que mènent des hommes et des femmes contre l’oppression, l’injustice et la violence qui leur sont imposées. The Fourth World War traite de cette guerre sournoise que les États, en concomitance avec les grands groupes financiers et industriels, livrent contre les intérêts et les besoins des citoyens du monde.

The movie begins with the following statement: This is a film about radical Islamic terror. A dangerous ideology, fueled by religious hatred. It's important to remember most Muslims are peaceful and do not support terror. This is not a film about them. This is a film about a radical worldview, and the threat it poses to us all, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. The film uses many images from Arab TV, provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute and Palestinian Media Watch.

Kopple initially intended to make a film about Kenzie, Miners for Democracy and the attempt to unseat Tony Boyle. When miners at the Brookside Mine in Harlan County, Kentucky went on strike in June 1972, Kopple went there to film the strike against Duke Power Company which the UMWA had helped to organize. The strike proved a more interesting subject, so Kopple switched the focus of her film.

En Grèce et en Espagne, le film fait un tour d'horizon des luttes qui soufflent en Europe contre la résignation et les politiques d'austérité. Il s'agit d'un voyage en musique, d’un bout à l’autre de la Méditerranée, à la rencontre de résistances, de terres en luttes et d’utopie.
