<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n| 2007 – 95′ – Animation, Drama. <\/p>\n Based on Satrapi’s graphic novel about her life in pre and post-revolutionary Iran and then in Europe. The film traces Satrapi’s growth from child to rebellious, punk-loving teenager in Iran. In the background are the growing tensions of the political climate in Iran in the 70s and 80s, with members of her liberal-leaning family detained and then executed, and the background of the disastrous Iran\/Iraq war.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" PERSEPOLIS | 2007 – 95′ – Animation, Drama.
