AMERICANISH is a US comedy drama in which three women of Pakistani heritage try to balance their career aspirations and romantic endeavours.

sex
Moderate sex references include a woman’s reference to erections, and multiple remarks alluding to pubic hair.
discrimination
People express racist and homophobic sentiments, including when a man throws a can at two Pakistani American women, telling them to go back to their own country, and when a woman describes a friend who is ashamed because her daughter is in a same sex relationship. Discriminative terms such as ‘gay’ are used infrequently. However any discrimination is quickly and clearly challenged by other characters, and the film as a whole condemns all such behaviour.
additional issues
There is use of mild bad language (‘bullshit’, ‘crap’, ‘screw’, ‘asshole’, ‘balls’) as well as milder terms including ‘God’, ‘damn’ and ‘hell’.
