Enjoy a curated selection of film adaptations of iconic novels with our Page to Screen series, screening monthly at Palace Electric, Palace Westgarth and The Chauvel Cinema!
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.
Based on a series of autobiographical graphic novels by Marjana Satrapi.
