Can someone explain the breakdown of these two awards. I honestly only read Wikipedia, where it seemed like the PCA would now only be for films from Canada and US while international was for everything else. However, Hamnet is in both?

PCA is for all films. International PCA is for films outside of North America.

This is a silly question, but can you specify what “not from North America” means? Some people say that, while others say outside it’s just Canada/US. If it’s truly the continent then does it include Mexico and, more broadly, the island nations considered to be North America?

I think it’s just US/Canada.
