Poster Design Brief

I am a documentary filmmaker who has recently had a film accepted to screen in a film festival. The film is called "A Quiet Strength" and the film synopsis is:

A single, working mother in the heart of the Mississippi Delta sees hard work, education and faith as the foundation for raising her three high school daughters. She is neither a hero nor a victim of society, but rather a simple, hardworking woman who puts one foot in front of the other each day with quiet strength.

I have some photo stills that I took from the film. I am looking for a movie poster that communicates the idea of "quiet strength". I also want to it to somehow communicate the setting - deep south, small town, lower socio-economic group while respecting the main character as neither a victim or a hero. But a solid, dependable, humble woman.

I can provide a link to view the 18 min documentary to get a better sense of the film.

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: Extended deadline by 3 days in order to get an image uploaded. Still having trouble doing this! If anyone has any suggestions, please give them to me.

I have posted a still from the film. If anyone wants to view it, I think it is viewable now. I had a special character in the name earlier and it seemed to cause problems.

I have added a still image from the film that could help. It could either be used (if quality permits) or be looked at to guide thinking about feel and tone of film.
