They were taken aback.

"Not producing it? Why not?" Nina asked.

Nelly smiled and said, "I'm not some big-shot director. I've only made a few documentaries and, yes, I've won some awards, but I don't have much income. This script took me five years to write, and even though I want to shoot it, I can't find investors. Without funding, it's impossible to move forward. Plus, the competition is fierce. Thousands of scripts are submitted, and mine hasn't attracted any interest. I wanted to produce it myself, but the funding fell through. I just can't make it happen!"

Nina thought it was for some other reason.

"Your script is really good!" Nina encouraged her. "Both Penelope and I think it's well written."

"Don't give up!" Penelope joined in. "Look, we're here to support you."

Nelly appreciated their encouragement but had to face reality. "Thank you, but I need to make money first. That's why I've been working on other projects lately. Even though I'm proud of this script, investors aren't interested."

She was still determined but needed to build up the resources.

"When I'm ready to shoot, I'll definitely ask you to audition," Nelly said to Penelope. "You're the first to reach out."

Penelope replied, "Your talent is undeniable. Don't doubt yourself. Investors follow the trends. It doesn't mean you're not good."
