Based on her autobiographical novel, Marjane Satrapi wrote and directed this animated film that tells the story of a young Iranian girl growing up during the Islamic Revolution. Sent to an Austrian boarding school, the precocious Marji discovers that her ethnic origin fuels racial prejudice. As an adult, Iranian society forces her to leave her country again for France, where she finally hopes to assert her cultural identity in a context of long-denied freedom and equality.
