Write a short summary of what happens in the radio or audio execution or campaign.

Everyone knows the phrase "Behind every great man is a great woman.".​ But what does it mean? That the man is always the hero and the woman his sidekick? The truth is, all too often women were upstaged, and their actions and successes not mentioned. 2019 is the year to rewrite history: with Stabilo Boss. By also audibly highlighting remarkable women and their stories in radio.​ The spots are brief documentations of putative male achievements, that made history. Shortly interrupted by a female voice, highlighting the forgotten contribution the women made.

Script. Provide the full radio advert script in English.

The world’s most famous highlighter pen.
