THE WOMEN OF POTTA CHITTO



Read the first seventeen pages of the script

A story of three mothers living within walking distance

of one another, but from three different worlds.

One a mother of a soldier killed on the battlefield

One a mother of the soldier's newborn son

And one a mother of a son sold into slavery

All living in a time of war, poverty, and destitution

Each learning to hold hands to survive


And to each day see a new sunrise
