Borat (2006)
Borat is a mockumentary comedy film starring Sacha Baron Cohen as a fictional journalist from Kazakhstan sent to report on the United States. Though the film is satirical, those involved in the film aren't in on the joke as Cohen maintains his character as he interacts with American citizens, pretending to have no sense of the culture.
