Laughter is harder... Friendship is stronger... Trust is deeper... When it comes from the heart.

Directed by Matt Williams
Novalee Nation is a 17-year-old Tennessee transient who has to grow up in a hurry when she's left pregnant and abandoned by her boyfriend on a roadside in Sequoyah, Okla., and takes refuge in the friendly aisles of Wal-Mart. In short order, some eccentric, kindly strangers 'adopt' Novalee and her infant daughter, helping them buck the odds and build a new life.
