Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis at Los Feliz 3
Film
Part of the series Late Night Toons
Persepolis is the poignant story of a young girl coming-of-age in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. It is through the eyes of precocious and outspoken nine-year-old Marjane that we see a people’s hopes dashed as fundamentalists take power — forcing the veil on women and imprisoning thousands. In French, Farsi, and German with English subtitles.
