Cert 12A, 95 mins Dir: Vincent Paronnaud & Marjane Satrapi France/USA 2007
Persepolis is an award-winning animated film based on Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novel of the same name.
An emotionally powerful and dramatically enthralling portrait of a teenage protagonist who witnesses the political upheaval of Tehran in the seventies, she humorously questions the views of the Ayatollah's command. With the voices of a hugely familiar cast of French actors, this film provides a profoundly personal insight into a family's decision to leave their country. Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival. In English, French, Persian and German with English subtitles.
