Movie: Persepolis
With amazing wit and heart, this award-winning animated feature tells the poignant story of a young girl coming of age in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. Through the eyes of precocious and outspoken 9-year-old Marjane, we see a people's hopes dashed as fundamentalists take power—forcing the veil on women and imprisoning thousands. Clever and fearless, she outsmarts the "social guardians" and discovers punk, ABBA and Iron Maiden. Directed by Marjane Satrapi (based on her acclaimed memoir) and Vincent Paronnaud. Academy Award nominee for Best Animated Feature. (Fully subtitled) PG-13. 2007
