Mutual Appreciation

Alan's quest for success in music and love is hampered by one thing-- himself. Centering on Alan's half-hearted romancing of radio DJ Sara and promoting his fledgling band, MUTUAL APPRECIATION is less a love story than an insightful and hilarious portrayal of the art of awkwardness. He slinks through New York City bars, clubs and teeny apartments in this exploration of the gray areas between expectation, disappointment and desire that accompany adulthood. An indie festival favorite, MUTUAL APPRECIATION is a cleverly written, utterly timeless snapshot of post-college angst. Andrew Bujalski was voted Someone to Watch at the 2004 Independent Spirit Awards and writer-director of critically acclaimed Funny Ha Ha.
