| Summary |
On turning 16 Amish youth are turned loose from their strict eighteenth century beliefs and upbringing and invited to experience the outside world until they can decide whether or not to commit to a lifetime within the Amish community. This freedom mixed with deep religious roots proves to sometimes be a brutal combination. This is the first film to ever get inside the Amish community and revolutionise our understanding of this unique American subculture |
