It depends on what you mean by 'real'. If you're asking if it's based on actual events, then maybe. But if you're expecting a 100% true account, it might not be.
It depends. Sometimes what's presented as a 'breakthrough' could be based on real events, but it might also have fictional elements added for dramatic effect.
Well, innovation within the context of the real situation is a factor. In the real story of the development of the Internet, innovators had to come up with new ways to connect people and share information. Another factor is the ability to learn from setbacks. For example, in the story of J.K. Rowling. She faced many rejections in her early attempts to publish the Harry Potter series. But she learned from those setbacks and made a huge breakthrough. Also, having a strong sense of purpose, like in the real - story - based fight against poverty by many charities and individuals. They have a clear purpose, which drives them to make breakthroughs in helping those in need.
The impacts can be various. If it's a scientific breakthrough, it might lead to better living conditions. For example, a new medical breakthrough could save countless lives.
The movie Breakthrough was indeed based on a true story. It tells the inspiring tale of a person's struggle and eventual success against all odds, drawing directly from real-life experiences.
I don't know for certain. You'd have to do some research or check with the filmmakers to get a definite answer on whether Breakthrough is truly based on a factual account.
