Narration of the movie is done by Jane Lynch; well known for her role as the narcissistic cheerleading coach on Glee. Lynch’s uncharacteristically somber tone, only serves to punctuate the seriousness of the movie’s topic."--From the article.

I act as a story-reteller, where I creatively and strategically edit the interview transcripts to maintain the narrative. The result is an ethnodrama.
