Perserpolis

Persepolis is an animated, autobiographical masterpiece about an Iranian woman's quest for the utopia of freedom. Persepolis is much more than a history lesson; it's also one of the most creative and important film of the year. The young woman in this film would give any revolutionary a run for their money. As she tries communism, nihilism, and anarchy, she fulfills a heartbreaking and complex tale of love, politics, and family. Persepolis is an uncompromising look at the culture and history of Iran as seen by an observant and open-minded family of Muslims.

Based off of a graphic novel- look for it at Cup-o-Kryptonite, right by the Fluer Cinima, after the movie.
