Mongo beginner, query inner array

I am trying to generate a mongo query that will return all entries where mktid=x and selctionid=y as per below. SelectionId is a member of an actors array as per below.

I have tried multiple things like this

db.getCollection('mycollection').find({mktid:"334455555",'actors.selectionId' : "443311555"})

and

db.getCollection('mycollection').find({mktid:"334455555",'actors.0.selectionId' : "443311555"})

The DB:

{
  "_id": {
    "$oid": "55098030e4b02da345b0a2ed"
  },
  "mktid": "55555555",
  "dubious": false,
  "state": "OPEN"
  "actors": [
    {
      "selectionId": 3333333,
      "activityid": 0,
      "status": "ACTIVE",
    },
    {
      "selectionId": 4444445gg,
      "activityid": 0,
      "status": "ACTIVE",
    },
    {
      "selectionId": xccfffff,
      "activityid": 0,
      "status": "ACTIVE",
    }
   ]
}

{ "_id": { "$oid": "55098030e44b02da345b0a2ed" }, "mktid": "5555552", ---- ---

db.getCollection('mycollection').find({mktid:"334455555", actors: {
                $elemMatch: {
                     selectionId: "443311555"
                }
      }
});
