This is a very good film.
This is a film about a noble soul.
This is a movie that should be seen at least once in a lifetime.

I have never been fond of French literature and art, but this movie is an exception.

Because of the self, it is true, and because of the true, it transcends the framework of national boundaries, politics and ideology, and becomes the ladder of soul redemption shared by all mankind.

He went abroad due to the political pressure of his hometown, and returned home due to discrimination and nostalgia for his hometown. I thought that I could live and work in my hometown by enduring it, but once the sea was difficult, my hometown was also a foreign land, and the pressure of reality was the same everywhere, and the pain of the soul was the most unbearable. After returning home, he made his hometown his hometown. After choosing and willing to take on it, he felt calm.

This movie has a lot to do with me. For those who have not experienced it, it is difficult to experience the light sadness, the pain of tearing the soul and the difficulty of the final decision in the film.

Choose prudently, accept it calmly, love sincerely, and do it bravely. In this way, youth has no regrets!

    Not bad, the old lady is still the soul of the movie

    Seeing the end, a feeling of helplessness. The Iran in the film is only a microcosm of human society, how difficult it is to pursue freedom, and freedom has to pay a price. Fear often makes people forget the fact that they are not free. In an ignorant and oppressive society, it is a luxury to have a rational group, but this only provides a weak hope. ps. Animation does not have to have a gorgeous style, the important thing is to express a kind of emotion.

Persepolis quotes

  • Marjane as a teenager: You say that our scarfs and trousers are indecent and that we put on make up, etc. As an art student, I'm often in the studio. I need to move freely in order to draw. A longer scarf will hinder me. As for our trousers, you say they're too wide even though they hide our shape. Since these trousers are in fashion right now, I ask, is religion defending our physical integrity or is it simply opposed to fashion? You criticise us, yet our brothers all have different hair and clothes. Sometimes they wear clothing so tight, we can see their underwear. Why is it that me, as a woman, should their tight clothes have no effect on me, while they should be aroused by a shorter scarf?

  • Marjane's grandmother: So you're French, now?

    Marjane as a teenager: Nana, stop it.

    Marjane's grandmother: No no, I'm just asking, is all. I didn't know you were French.

    Marjane as a teenager: Do you think it's easy being Iranian here? The moment I say where I'm from, they look at me like I'm a savage. They think we're all bloodthirsty, violent, loud fanatics.

    Marjane's grandmother: Do you think that's any reason to deny your roots? Do you remember what I told you? Be true to yourself.
