Persepolis
A touching coming-of-age story about an intelligent, outspoken girl growing up during the Iranian revolution. The film is based on Satrapi’s series of graphic novels and her childhood experiences in Iran, where she survived traumatic encounters with schoolteachers bent on denying her expression, policemen determined to deny her freedom and Iraqi bombs intended to take her life. Dedicated to the people of Iran, Persepolis is a moving, universally appealing story of one woman’s struggle against oppression.
