Joseph J. Graber, who is the host of this documentary, is very upbeat and clearly enjoys showing the world many things about the Amish communities in the U. S. Many important aspects were covered -- but other important aspects were not (such as the problem with pedophilia in the Amish population and how it has become more widespread). It also does not cover about the Amish who cling to old superstitions/magic practices. His father used to be an Amish minister, so he has an interesting (and very positive perspective), despite the fact that he and his immediate family (or at least his parents) have clearly left the Amish lifestyle, much due to the communities having come to a place where they are following the traditions of men rather than the Bible -- and because many Amish don't read the Bible much and are afraid to read more so they won't feel like they must have to do something about it.
It's free to see on YouTube. I believe there is a part 2 coming (if it is not already here).
