There will be a screening of the film Persepolis on Thursday 15 October on level 6 of the Boyd Orr, lecture theatre E. The screening should start at around 7 PM, but we have the room from 6:30 so feel free to come along for a chat beforehand.

The story follows a young girl as she comes of age against the backdrop of the Iranian Revolution. The story ends with Marjane as a 22-year-old expatriate. The film won the Jury Prize at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival.

This film came third in the Amnesty UK media team’s Top 10 Human Rights Films Poll (request on twitter), so it is certainly worth coming along to watch.
