The Adventures of Ociee Nash (2004)

Through the vibrant landscapes of rural Mississippi, nine-year-old Ociee Nash, a spirited girl with a heart full of adventure, finds solace in the company of her brother Ben and her loyal four-legged friend, Woofer. However, the sudden death of her mother and her unexpected encounter with a mystical Gypsy disrupts her idyllic existence. Concerned for her upbringing and safety, Ociee's father makes a heart-wrenching decision to send her to Asheville, North Carolina. Her refined Aunt Mamie, tasked with transforming this wildflower into a 'proper young lady', awaits her arrival. As Ociee embarks on this uncertain journey by train, she crosses paths with a kaleidoscope of remarkable individuals. From the trailblazing female journalist Nellie Bly to the visionary Wright brothers and even the President himself, Ociee's infectious spirit and unique perspective influences those around her, sparking a memorable campaign slogan for President William McKinley. Upon reaching Asheville, Ociee and Aunt Mamie learn to see the world from each other's perspectives. As Ociee swaps dungarees for dresses, she battles to preserve her adventurous spirit while embracing the etiquette of her new environment. The friendship she forges with the prim Elizabeth Murphy leads to a series of daring escapades, including a chance encounter with Harry Vanderbilt and his circle. Meanwhile, Aunt Mamie's stern exterior softens when her old friend Mr. Lynch arrives for Sunday dinner, thanks to Ociee's warm-hearted invitation. Ociee's courage and integrity shine brightest when faced with a life-threatening fire at the Murphys', proving her true character. Her bravery is celebrated with a jubilant "Ociee Nash Day", bringing joy to everyone. Set in 1898, The Adventures of Ociee Nash is a vibrant tale of self-discovery, bravery, and the enduring spirit of a young girl navigating her way through two contrasting worlds.
