A wonderful story of people helping people, based on old Choctaw legends. Bok Chitto is a river; on one side are Choctaw lands and on the other are the lands of plantation owners and slaves. When a group of slaves learn their family is to be sold to another plantation, the slaves use their friendship with the Choctaw people to find a way to escape across Bok Chitto and into freedom on Choctaw land.
