The omiscent narrator in my short film will have an opening speech and the closing speech of the film. Hence the conversation between the moderate Muslim and the radical Muslim tackles of the negative impacts Islamic extremism has on both the morals and ethics of Islam and the world in general, I decided that it will be more appropritae to use a quote by a legend which is related to the entire script as the opening and closing speech instead of a quote from the Qur'an. I made this decision because I realised that using quotes from the Qur'an will give the short film a biased stand on the argument and give the audience the impression that the film supports only the ideas of the moderate Muslim. After doing some research on quotes by famous leaders such as Mahatma Ghandi, Nelson Mandela and Albert Einstein, I chose to use the quote in the first image on the right as the opening quote and the one on the left as the closing quote.
I chose to use Albert Einstein's quote as the introductory speech because it informs the audience that the dialogue between the moderate Muslim and the radical Muslim is a way of solving Islamic extremism as Islamic extremism is an evil which must not be ignored. Using Nelson Mandela's quote as the closing speech informs the audience that these radical Muslims must not be condemned but instead must be talked to and taught to love.
