Marjane is eight years old when the mullahs drive the Shah out of Persia and take power. The world is suddenly a different place, but the rebellious girl doesn't even think about submitting to the new strict rules. She would much rather discover punk, ABBA, Iron Maiden and, of course, boys. She has no idea that her playful protest is dangerous. Based on the cult comic novels of the same name, this is an unconventional, exciting and deeply human animated film for adults.
