However as Marji grows up, she witnesses first hand how the new Iran, now ruled by Islamic fundamentalists, has become a repressive tyranny on its own.<div><br></div><div><div>"It might seem that her story is too large for one 98-minute film, but Persepolis tells it carefully, lovingly and with great style." - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times</div><div><br></div><div>“It's unlike any journal you've read or any animated movie you've seen." – Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer</div><div><br></div><div>"Persepolis, austere as it may look, is full of warmth and surprise, alive with humor and a fierce independence of spirit." - A.O.
