The Problem with Apu

About The Problem with Apu

In the history of “The Simpsons,” few characters outside the title family have had as much cultural impact as Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, the Springfield convenience store owner. Comedian Hari Kondabolu is out to show why that might be a problem.

The Problem with Apu (2017) is a documentary film directed by Michael Melamedoff. At 49 minutes long, it arrived in November 2017.

Its themes are pop culture, racist stereotype, and racism.

Hari Kondabolu takes the lead as Self, Kal Penn as Self, Hasan Minhaj as Self, and Aasif Mandvi as Self. The screenplay is by Hari Kondabolu. It was produced by Avalon Television and Marobru Productions.

White Hot: The Rise & Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch make useful companions to The Problem with Apu. TMDB voters put it at 4.8 out of 10 across 50 votes.
