Movie Night II: Persepolis at the ELC


Because it went so well the last time, we're doing it again! Our bookclub group has decided to share the wonderful movie, Persepolis, with the ELC. And even though it comes at a busy time, we think it is perfect opportunity to unwind and watch a great movie with some great people. Details below!

What: PERSEPOLIS
When: FRIDAY, JUNE 1 at 7p.m.
Where: ELC Student Lounge
Why: To celebrate Level 4 Bookclub!

Details: Potluck event, so feel free to bring something to share. Friends and family encouraged. 



Persepolis is a memoir written by Marjane Satrapi chronicling her experiences growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution and the Iran/Iraq War. As a teenager, she goes to Vienna, Austria to escape the chaos in her homeland. There she struggles with her own identity because she has to learn to live in a new culture.

Note: Discusses ideas related to faith and religion as “Marji” learns to discover who she is and what she believes.
