Question: How does this sketch propose to RELAY this ethnography beyond the monograph? What comments do you have on this proposa

The sketch proposes adapting the book into a play or movie. Since one of the objectives of the book is to reach a wide audience, a movie would help spread Lia and her family's story and the socio-medical problems inherent within it. I think that's a good idea since movie screenings are a popular way to bring people's attention to a particular social problem. I think it might also be beneficial to turn it into a 10-minute animated short, like the kind designed for children. The way it centers on Lia's struggle with her medical disorder made it seem especially conceivable to have it made in a short.
