An expressionistic animation stunningly drawn in black and white, Persepolis (2007)  is a touching coming-of-age story about an intelligent, outspoken girl growing up during the Iranian revolution. Dedicated to the people of Iran, PERSEPOLIS is a moving, universally appealing story of one woman’s struggle against oppression that deservedly shared the jury prize at Cannes in 2007. Directors: Marjane Satrapi & Vincent Paronnaud
