Thirteen Crosses - Feature Documentary
Darryl Joseph for Narrator
Narrator (Male, 50s-70s): We are looking for a warm voice to be the central storyteller of the film. The ideal voice will capture the feeling of an older firefighter telling a story in a bar or around a fire. Looking for a tone that fits a Montana community without being too western or twangy. Think JK Simmons or Josh Brolin rather than Sam Elliot.
NEEDS: About 15 minutes of final voice-over, following the script, telling the events of the documentary. About 2000 words NO AI

On a sweltering August afternoon in 1949, the quiet hills of western Montana erupted into an inferno that would forever change the course of wildland firefighting. A lightning strike sparked a blaze that would transform from manageable to catastrophic.
Mann Gulch. Few fires live so vividly in modern memory. It may not have been the first of its kind or the last, but, mired in controversy, the wildland firefighting community continues to feel its sting today. And it's not just them who remember...
Dodge jumped into the burned area he had created and called for his crewmen to join him. All Dodge could do was lie down and pray.
