Thought provoking animation about the life changing events that befalls a young girl who flees Iran and heads to Paris in the aftermath of the Islamic Revolution. As she grows up, we witness the way she has to adapt to her new situation and the pressures she faces, internal as well as external.
‘superb animated adaptation of Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novels' Timeout
‘Stroppy, opinionated and wildly funny, Persepolis is the kind of film that is calculated to provoke anyone who takes himself - and cinema - too seriously.' TimesOnline
‘One of the best and most distinctive animated films to appear in recent years, a highly accessible girl's eye view of Iran's Islamic Revolution.' BFI
