synopsis
Marjane, a young girl, grows up in Iran during and after the Islamic Revolution. Her life is shaped by political turmoil, family bonds and eventual exile in Europe. Through stark black-and-white animation, the film turns a personal coming-of-age story into a broader reflection on revolution, identity, and what it means to feel at home. Its minimalistic style is not just a design choice but makes events big and small in a faraway place feel relatable for people from all over the globe.
As modern as tomorrow's headlines and as classic as an ancient myth.
The Globe and Mail
"Persepolis" mêle le rire aux larmes, sans faire l'impasse sur les ravages de la dictature islamiste avec son lot d’intolérances et d’arrestations. Drôle et poignante, éducative et captivante.
