Yeah, Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis is being released as an animated film! Based on her graphic novels, Persepolis takes place in pre- and post-Shah Iran. It's a very humanizing look at another part of the world. You realize, yet again, that people are the same all over.
NPR has a short audio segment on the release, which won at Cannes earlier this year. The books are among my favorites, so I'm really looking forward to seeing this!
