Marjane Satrapi's widely-heralded graphic novel "Persepolis" uses seemingly simplistic black-and-white drawings to capture vast emotional and political landscapes, following the author's young self as she struggles through the Iranian revolution and emigrates abroad. Satrapi's story, with its film-noir-style shadows and starkly expressive black-framed faces, is now an Oscar-nominated, Cannes-Jury-Prize winning animated film featuring the voice of Catherine Deneuve. Marjane Satrapi visits Zócalo to discuss Iran, the graphic novel, and the art of memoir after a screening of “Persepolis” (released by Sony Picture Classics).
