Plot

Imagine living without electricity, automobiles, telephones, or television, living as our forefathers did 100 years ago -- and as the Amish do today.Visits with the Amish penetrates the closed society of Amish communities in Iowa and North Carolina. Step into the homes, shops, schools, and buggies of real Amish families, attend a church service and a quilting bee, experience the quiet rhythms of work and play among these deeply religious people.
