Marjane Satrapi - Vincent Paronnaud, Persépolis -2007

Téhéran 1978. Une fillette grandit dans un contexte familial chaleureux, suivant de près les évènements qui provoquent la chute du Chah. Puis vient le temps des commissaires de la révolution, l'exil en Autriche, les premières amours... Une adaptation de la bd de Marjane Satrapi, Prix du Jury du 60e Festival de Cannes. Marjan Satrapi's International best-selling comic book series Persepolis: The story of a childhood Satrapi's autobiography is the story of a young girl's life under the Islamic Revolution. The animated version of this fascinating story was released in June 2007. The work which required nearly a titanic total of 2 Million drawings for the animation was joined by a prestigious cast of French Stars who do the voice overs : Catherine Deneuve, daughter Chiara Mastroiani and veteran French film star Danielle Darrieux.

Quite simply one of the best book adaptations and animated films to have come out of Europe in recent years, Marjane Satrapi and Vincent Paronnaud’s Persepolis is a film experience one is unlikely to forget. The film won a shared Grand Prix at the recent Cannes Film Festival and has already attracted over 700,000 viewers in France since its release three weeks ago. Not bad for an animated film that is mostly in black-and-white, has strong political overtones and is squarely aimed at adults. Equal success should be found on foreign shores, especially with local dubbing, though the voice work of the French cast, including Chiara Mastroianni, Catherine Deneuve and Danielle Darrieux is exceptional.

The film is an adaptation of a comic book (or "graphic novel") series penned by Marjane Satrapi and based largely on her own experiences as a rebellious young girl growing up in 1970s and 1980s Iran before being sent off "into safety" in Europe. In her life, the growing pains of a free-spirited young girl happen to occur alongside the fall of the Shah’s rule and the Islamic Revolution. With its perfect blend of the personal and the political, Persepolis tells the parallel stories of a girl and a country trying to grow up and find out what’s right for them, though both are often taken hostage by foreign impulses.
