Screenwriting courses outside English read here mostly use the Anglo-American toolkit: a Valencia course teaches turning points, inciting incident, climax and the hero's journey; a Brazilian article summarises Field, Chion, Comparato and McKee, including three acts; a Japanese syllabus lists kishotenketsu and hako-gaki (box-writing) as a basic lesson without defining them. No primary craft manual in Korean, Hindi or Arabic was found (thin result).
