BOSS LADY, is the biographical story of Mary Fields, a true American legend born before her time. The movie explores the true parallels of her life, beginning with her childhood on the plantation as a slave girl, her cherished relationship with Mary Jo, who secretly teaches reading and writing. After emancipation Mary’s life takes a dramatic turn and winds up a rough rugged cowboy. This free woman became a gun-slinging, whiskey drinking, cigar smoking, foul-mouth, ex-slave, who spoke her mind freely and didn’t let anyone push her around. She was the BOSS LADY and everybody knew it.
