# The Story of Gertie and Colvis Nevels

During World War II, hard-luck farmer Colvis Nevels leaves his rural Kentucky home to take a factory job in bustling Detroit. Reluctantly accompanying Colvis is his long-suffering wife, Gertie, a talented woodcarver set in her traditional ways. When the perils of city life and Colvis’ reckless squandering send the Nevels into precarious financial straits, Gertie starts a business making hand-carved dolls in order to provide for her family. It's all up to Gertie to find new strength, courage and determination to keep her family together and strong.
