In the 1890s, the lives of a small group of African-American women change after they leave the oppressive South and settle in the all-black town of Nicodemus, Kansas. Their hope and determination to survive in a harsh region are tested as they build new lives for themselves and their families. When a male relative arrives and pressures them to sell the land they claimed and worked with their own hands, the women face tough decisions. With flashes of humor amid serious themes, Flyin' West sheds new light on a chapter of American history that's seldom told, as it explores questions and conflicts that still resonate.
