One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
A precocious and outspoken Iranian girl grows up during the Islamic Revolution.
"Originally, 'Persepolis' is a French autobiographical graphic novel, in which comic artist Marjane Satrapi tells her childhood and the beginning of her adult life in an Iran shaken by the Islamic Revolution. Here, the story was adapted to the animation format precisely by Marjane, alongside director Vincent Paronnaud. The result is one of the best animations of the 21st century, with a lot of sensitivity and good humor. Obviously, 'Persepolis' was nominated for the Oscar - and, for those reasons that only the Academy knows, ended up losing to the good 'Ratatouille'."
