Adapted from an autobiographical comic book by Marjane Satrapi, Persepolis follows the charming, poignant, often hilarious adventures of Marji…
… From a rebellious, heavy metal-loving tomboy experiencing the turmoil of adolescence as the Iranian revolution erupts to a teenage exile in Vienna, Austria, where she discovers the benefits of freedom can be just as shocking as the repressive regime she was forced to leave behind.
Returning to Iran as an adult, Marji must decide just where her heart and home now lie in this complex, insightful and touching story, one of the most sublime animated films you’re likely to experience.
