The story

B movie film producer Bobby Bowfinger has been saving up to direct a movie since he was ten years old: he now has $2,184 to pay for production costs. He has a script called "Chubby Rain" penned by an accountant, Afrim, and a camera operator, Dave, who has access to studio equipment through his job as a gofer. Bowfinger then lines up several actors who are hungry for work, along with a crowd of illegal Mexican immigrants as his camera crew; the only other thing he needs is a studio deal in order to distribute his masterwork.
