To mark the release of the movie out now, we have a Persepolis graphic novel, soundtrack and movie still to giveaway to five lucky readers.
Clever and fearless the young Marjane constantly outsmarts the so called “social guardians” who have forced the veil on women and imprisoned thousands. But even as she rebels discovering the cultural possibilities on offer through the unlikely medium of punk, ABBA and Iron Maiden, the daily fear that permeates life in Iran is palpable.
Although sent abroad to live, Marjene returns home to Iran and reluctantly dons the veil all the while speaking out against the hypocrisy she witnesses and at age 24, she realizes that while she is deeply Iranian, she cannot live in Iran. She then makes a heartbreaking decision.
