Description
The story of ten ambitious women, and one male superstar fallen from grace, as they stumble through the sometimes delusional pursuit of fame A listless woman gets pulled into the orbit of a wannabe influencer, whose lavish lifestyle is not what it seems; an assistant on Architectural Digest-style videos finds renewed purpose in kleptomania when she begins nabbing trinkets from celebrity houses; and a struggling actress goes method so she can nail an audition for the role of High School Junkie Girlfriend. Threaded throughout these explorations of feminine neuroses and aspirations is a young hotshot male actor, who faces his own fall from grace following accusations of cannibalism. I Could Be Famous takes the messy millennial trope to weird, wild and wonderful places, holding a mirror up to our own obsession with how we're perceived, and the fascination we all hold with the idea that we could - someday, maybe, somehow - be famous.
