punk is not ded

I just bought 'Persepolis'; I have been highly curious about it ever since I saw the preview online.



Although it is set in such an unfamiliar backdrop (1970's-1990's Iran, spanning regime changes, revolutions, and wars), it's a typical coming-of-age story about a young girl.

A nice reminder that all people in all cultures yearn above all for freedom and love.

oh, and the animation is creative and stunning in its simplicity.
