A film on Hillary Clinton by award-winning television producers Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers was released at the Democratic National Convention here ahead of the acceptance speech of her nomination as a first woman presidential candidate by a major political party in the US.
Narrated by Morgan Freeman, the twelve-minute film, "Hillary" featured interviews with the former President and her husband Bill Clinton, US President Barack Obama, a 9/11 survivor and first responder, as well as her childhood friend.
"It is an honour to provide America with an intimate portrait of Hillary. Everyone already knows the powerhouse - now, with this piece, everyone will also get to know the person," Rhimes said.
"Producing this film was a major highlight of my career, and I am incredibly honoured that the campaign entrusted us with the responsibility," Beers said.
"It is beyond inspiring to see this amazing woman secure the Democratic nomination for President of the United States. There is no other voice I would rather have speak for all of us, and lead this country, than Hillary Clinton," Beers said.
