For Shirin (Desiree Akhavan), being part of a perfect family isn t easy.
Acceptance eludes her from all sides: her family doesn t know she s bisexual,
and her ex-girlfriend, Maxine (Rebecca Henderson), can t understand why she
doesn t tell them. Even the six-year-old boys in her moviemaking class are too
ADD to focus on her for more than a second. Following a family announcement of
her brother s betrothal to a parentally approved Iranian prize catch, Shirin
embarks on a private rebellion involving a series of escapades, while trying to
decipher what went wrong with Maxine.
From writer/director/actress Desiree Akhavan (the unfathomable love-child of
Woody Allen, Lena Dunham and Tina Fey) comes an ironic, Iranian, hipster date
movie; APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOUR is an achingly cool, post-feminist comedy about
what happens when a girl comes out and discovers that extraordinary is the new
ordinary.
