Searchers – “Persepolis 2.0”

Well, I’ll be the first to admit that it isn’t much, but it is, at the very least interesting. It is like Persepolis, in a way, but without the autobiographical elements; just historical account of the regime change. It uses pictures from the graphic novel, but they are re-contextualized in order to convey new meaning. It isn’t incredibly well done, but it seems that it was created more as a way of informing people who may support change in modern Iran. It’s also rather short, but even with the altered meanings of the panels, its somewhat impressive that there is a cohesive narrative.
