Thu, July 2, 7PM
2007 | Docudrama/Animation | Directed by Vincent Paronnaud & Marjane Satrapi, Starring Chiara Mastroianni, Catherine Deneuve, Danielle Darrieux | 1h 36m | PG-13 | French w/ English Subtitles
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.
“The monochrome animation is stark and beautiful, and Marjane's an appealing narrator. Often hilarious, sometimes tragic, this may be low-tech, but it's high-class.” - Helen O’hara, Empire Magazine
“Persepolis is, in its way, a hymn to the enduring influence of family, particularly during a time in which the state is attempting to seize all hearts, minds and instincts for itself.” -Jenny McCartney, Daily Telegraph
