California Schemin', directed by James McAvoy, tracks two Scottish men who pose as an American hip-hop duo to chase stardom, based on a real-life con that exposed dreams and deception. It Would Be Night in Caracas, directed by Mariana Rondón and Marité Ugás, centers on a woman burying her mother amid escalating clashes between anti-government protesters and police in 2017 Venezuela.
