"Appropriate Behavior" Reel Q 29

Appropriate Behavior (US; 2013; 90 min.) Director: Desiree Akhavan Writer, director and actress Desiree Akhavan taps into her own experiences growing up as an Iranian-American to craft this funny and bright film. Akhavan portrays Shirin, a young woman who is struggling to become an ideal Persian daughter, and politically correct bisexual and hip young Brooklynite all at the same time --- but fails miserably in her attempt at all identities. The cast also includes comedian/actor Scott Adsit (TV’s “30 Rock”) and Pennsylvania native Aimee Mullins, who first became famous for her athletic accomplishments despite the amputation of both of her legs.
