PERSEPOLIS.

Mon 28 Apr, 6 - 8.30pm at Cornerhouse

Deserved winner of the Jury Prize at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival, the lively, hand-drawn animation persepolis was adapted from the series of graphic novels by author Satrapi and co-director Paronnaud. Marjane grows up in a liberal family in Tehran. As they watch the totalitarianism of the Shah give way to that of the Ayatollahs, her parents decide to send teenage Marjane to a French school in Vienna. There, isolated and tormented, she tests her liberty by dabbling in punk - and more. But ultimately she faces a choice: be free and lose her home or return home and lose her freedoms.

You'll get to create your own review of the film after the screening. It can be in any format you like, from an MSN Messenger chat to a podcast. It's up to you!
