Dinner and a Movie: Persepolis

.
Wednesday, April 28
@ Sedition Books (901 Richmond Ave.)

Come out for a delicious vegan meal and screening of Persepolis!

Based on Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novel of the same name, Persepolis follows a young girl as she comes of age against the backdrop of the Iranian Revolution. The animated film deals with Communism, religious fundamentalism, imperialism, and travel in the context of 20th century Iran.

A brilliant portrait of Iran during and after the revolution, as well as a wonderful story of a rebellious young girl growing up during an increasingly repressive society.

Dinner (hopefully Iranian influenced) to be served at 7-7:30, Movie at eight.

$5.00 suggested donation.
