Directed by Marjane Satrapi and Vincent Paronnaud

Persepolis is an animated film that's based on Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novel of the same name. It follows Marjane's life growing up in Tehran during the Iranian revolution. The movie starts when Marjane is a very young girl in the late 70's, and shows us her life for many years, as she spends her teens in Vienna (after her parents send her away from Iran to keep her safe), as she returns to Iran as a young woman, and as she finally finds pride in her heritage.
