Persepolis

...this is a highly personal look at a situation of real complexity.

...is at once a confessional autobiography, historical re-enactment, graphic art object, and deeply involving contemporary story about a girl’s coming-of-age...

...is surprisingly involving, wrapping us in this autobiography that distills an epoch into a young women's life.

The two main points Persepolis makes are that strife is relative, and all politics are personal.

En på én gang varm og dyster beretning om at finde sig selv i en kærlig familie og en koldblodig verden.
