Casi Famoso (Spanish with Subtitles)

Winner of the Audience Award at the Festival Cinélatino Rencontres de Toulouse 2019 — world premiere at one of Latin America's most prestigious film festivals. Based on a true story. Diego is a locally recognized actor in Chile with big ambitions: he wants to go international. When a celebrated French film director reaches out and offers him the role of a lifetime, everything comes down to a single Skype call the following morning. Then the power goes out. With no internet, no time, and nothing going right, Diego races across the city to find a connection — and must somehow perform the audition of his career in a café while everything around him falls apart. Co-written and directed by Gonzalo Díaz and starring Diego Ruiz as a fictionalized version of himself, Casi Famoso is a sharp, affectionate comedy about ambition, embarrassment, and the gap between the life you imagine and the one you actually live. In Spanish and English with subtitles. Free with ads.
