Animation Tuesdays: Persepolis
Advertisement
In 1970s Iran, Marjane 'Marji' Satrapi watches events through her young eyes and her idealistic family of a long dream being fulfilled of the hated Shah's defeat in the Iranian Revolution of 1979. However as Marji grows up, she witnesses first hand how the new Iran, now ruled by Islamic fundamentalists, has become a repressive tyranny on its own.

"Persepolis, austere as it may look, is full of warmth and surprise, alive with humor and a fierce independence of spirit." - A.O. Scott, New York Times
