The Shakers: Hands to Work, Hearts to God (1989)
The Shakers: Hands to Work, Hearts to God (1989) is a sensitive, beautiful Ken Burns' tribute to the Shakers' unique commitment to a community based on god, excellence, pacifism, industry, and equality. Marvelous examples of Shaker furniture, inventions, and architecture. Poignant snapshots of the final images of a society eliminated by its commitment to celibacy.
