Embroideries

Summary

Marjane Satrapi, her mother, her grandma, and a group of friends are gathered in a family reunion and discuss not only the difficult issue of the limitations and possibilities of female sexuality, in a Muslim country like Iran and confronted to the Western culture, but also the limitations of the patriarchy. As it is usual in Satrapi''s narrative, the subject is treated not only in a critical way, but adding humor to express her points of view.
