Do you believe your story can change the world? “Persepolis” by Marjane Satrapi shows us how one person can stand up and make a powerful statement.

Starting in her hometown of Tehran, Iran, during the Islamic Revolution, we follow Satrapi as she recounts her coming-of-age in the face of war, family secrets, and oppressive religious and political forces. 
Persepolis is a heartwarming yet bittersweet tale of a young girl's resilience and courage and how one person can make a difference in the world.
Satrapi shows us that although life is difficult and sometimes unfair, we can still choose democracy and hope. By simply telling her story, Satrapi is able to inspire and offer a unique perspective on feminism, war, and religious discrimination, to name a few.
Persepolis is a powerful story that gives us an intimate look into the complex, tragic, and humorous reality of Iranian life under repressive rule.
