Animation Tuesdays: Persepolis

Join us for a mesmerizing screening of Persépolis, a captivating tale of Marjane 'Marji' Satrapi's journey through a turbulent Iran during the 1970s. Witness the idealism of her family as they celebrate the defeat of the Shah and experience the eventual repression under Islamic fundamentalism. This acclaimed animated film offers warmth, humor, and a poignant narrative that Roger Ebert describes as told "with great style". ✨

"It's unlike any journal you've read or any animated movie you've seen." – Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
"Austere as it may look, it is full of warmth and surprise, alive with humor and a fierce independence of spirit." - A.O. Scott, New York Times
