There is a term for explaining things in a script for the reader.

Such as ...

'the following conversation is in French'.

This is used instead of writing (subtitles: French) under each and every character heading.

Another example ...

'This character never speaks.'

... so the reader has some instructions. Frowned on, I know, but from time to time needed to save lines.
