Interviewer: That sounds amazing. What can viewers expect from your documentary?

Jane: They will see real-world stories narrated by people who experienced them. There are no actors, just real people. The film has voice-overs and title screens to provide more information. It's a feature film, not a series, and will premiere next month.

Today, I want to talk about two brilliant people who influenced me exceptionally in society. The first is Marie Curie, a scientist who discovered radium and polonium. Her research helped develop X-ray machines, which save many lives today. Despite many challenges, Marie Curie won two Nobel Prizes for her work.

The second personage is Nelson Mandela, who fought for equal opportunity in South Africa. He spent 27 years in prison but never gave up. Mandela became the first black president of South Africa and worked hard to connect the country. His efforts have motivated many people around the world.

Both Marie Curie and Nelson Mandela faced great difficulties but achieved amazing things. They showed us that passion and hard work can lead to great achievements. Their stories remind us to keep pushing forward, even in difficult times. We can all learn from their examples and try to make a difference in our lives and communities.
