The movie is about Borat Sagdiyev, who is a TV reporter of a popular show in Kazakhstan as Kazakhstan's sixth most famous man and a leading journalist.
He is sent from his home to America by his government to make a documentary about American society and culture. Borat takes a course in New York City to understand American humor.
While watching Baywatch on TV, Borat discovers how beautiful their women are in the form of C. J. Parker, who was played by actress Pamela Anderson who hails from Malibu, California.
He decides to go on a cross-country road trip to California in a quest to make her his wife and take her back to his country. On his journey Borat and his producer encounter a country full of strange and wonderful Americans, real people in real chaotic situations with hysterical consequences.
Film’s participants were given no warning on what they would be taking part in except for being asked to sign release forms agreeing not to take legal action against the film’s producers.
That is why the cast and crew of Borat nearly started a riot during the filming of the rodeo scene where Borat sings the (made up) Kazakhstan national Anthem to the tune of the American national anthem.
