Jasmine is full of life

"A Woman's Growth Experience and a Nation's Painful History".
War, death, fear, depression, loneliness... But it is difficult to cover up the inner desire for freedom and love.

"You're going to have a lot of madness in your life. If they pity you, you straighten your spine and hit them back. That's the best way you can deal with them. There's nothing scarier than weakness. You have to respect yourself, Be what it says..."

Love shines like a spinning disco ball in a ballroom (this montage of transitions ----- wonderful!).
The funny thing is, the man shouted "I love you" when he was caught in bed...
The deceit of love is hopeless, you will never imagine how great the hurt is! There is nothing more terrifying than living alone in a vast crowd of people who can be hungry and cold, can sleep on the street, and travel in the opposite direction through the crowd.
"I went through a revolution that made me lose some of my family. I survived a war, but it was love that killed me..."
Doctor: "From now on, I forbid you to smoke another one. Smoke."
"Dad, Mom, can I go home? But please, don't ask me any questions..."
A choice anyone has at any time!
I'm leaving you!
A new life awaits me, and freedom always comes at a price.
Remember: be true to yourself, respect yourself and love yourself!
Can you do it?

    2008.02.19 I bought 20 discs in one night, and I didn't even see three discs because of the player's problem. Just when I thought I should give up, the goldfish said look at this. Looking really excited. very good, very powerful. well drawn. The dubbing chose to listen to Chinese, but fortunately I was not disappointed.

    The top ten films in the French box office in 2007, the top ten in the audience's evaluation, and the top ten in the media's evaluation. A perfect combination of simple form and simple emotions. The story is far away from us, but it still hits the soul, not for the war in the distance, but for the hometown we can't go back to-"Where did you come from?"-"Iran".

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.
