This DVD examines the Amish of Pennsylvania, setting them in the context of the expanding Amish community across North America. Researchers Donald B. Kraybill, Ph.D. and Steve Nolt, Ph.D. provide commentary. While Amish may look similar, they are really a collection of diverse beliefs and practices. Every church district sets its own rules, called their Ordnung, which manages nearly every facet of their members' lives. The video examines the diversity found within the Amish communities and how economic pressures are forcing them to change their historic way of life.
Produced by Buller Films LLC, the DVD is 46 minutes in length with English subtitles.
