Persepolis is one of the most extraordinary animated films ever made. Black and white. Deeply personal. Visually stunning and emotionally devastating in all the right ways.
 
Marjane is a young girl growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. She watches her country transform around her. She is sent to Europe for her safety. She navigates exile, identity, love, loss and the exhausting complexity of belonging nowhere and everywhere at once.
 
This Academy Award nominated film speaks to every viewer who has ever lived between worlds, been told to be someone they are not, or searched for a sense of self in the middle of circumstances completely beyond their control.
