Kazakhs, foreigners agree Borat's take on Kazakhstan Very Nice! ...Not!
- hace 3 años
Nur-Sultan, Nov 30 (EFE).- Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, British filmmaker Sacha Baron Cohen's sequel about the adventures of a Kazakh journalist, continues to generate irritation since its release last month, with residents in Kazakhstan strongly disputing its "unrealistic and uninformed" image of the country.
In the film, Cohen himself takes a critical and satirical look at society through the character Borat Sagdiyev, who travels to the United States and contrasts the extremes of both cultures.
Despite showing Kazakhstan as a country of ancient traditions, people such as British teacher Inna Hakobyan said Kazakhs "are open to the way they are, they are open to accepting foreigners," while Kazakh architect Zhemis Kapakova said it was a place where "you are free to work in whatever you want to work and can be whoever you want to be."
