In 1848, African American slaves Ellen and William hatch a plan to break free from their captivity and ensure that their future children will never be torn from them. The escape plan is ingenious, if borderline ludicrous.
They depart Georgia in broad daylight with Ellen, born of a white slave owner and Black woman, disguised as a white Southern gentleman. With William at her side, she must adopt the mannerisms and bigotry of her enslavers, hiding the fact that neither she nor William can read or write, and overcomes multiple, near-death obstacles in the bid for freedom.
Based on Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom , this original, intimate vignette paints a portrait from the female perspective of an infamous escape, and displays the bravery of one woman in the face of impossible odds.
