Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (2020) is a satirical mockumentary that follows the fictional Kazakh journalist Borat Sagdiyev, portrayed by Sacha Baron Cohen. Set 14 years after the original film, Borat is sent by his government to the United States to deliver a gift to then-Vice President Mike Pence. However, upon arriving, he embarks on a journey to navigate American culture, aiming to present his daughter, Tutar, as a gift to Pence in exchange for political favor. Throughout the film, Borat’s encounters with unsuspecting citizens expose the absurdities and biases prevalent in society, especially concerning issues like politics, gender, and race.
The movie cleverly blends comedic moments with sharp social commentary, using Cohen’s signature style of improv and hidden camera pranks. At the heart of the film is Borat’s evolving relationship with his daughter, as he struggles to comprehend both her independence and the changing societal values. Despite its crudeness, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm challenges viewers to reflect on modern American culture and the global consequences of political and social actions.
