Amish at the Altar - Posaidhean Amish

Revealing documentary following a group of young Amish men and women preparing for their wedding days.

Tha am pr貌gram aithriseach seo a' leantainn buidheann de dh' fhireannaich agus boireannaich 貌g a tha ag ullachadh airson nan l脿ithean p貌saidh aca. Tha cuid a' p貌sadh taobh a-staigh creideamh nan Amish agus tha cuid eile air an creideamh fh脿gail agus air a dhol dhan t-saoghail mh貌r. Chaidh an togail gu 矛re mh貌r air falbh bhon mh貌r-shluaigh ann an teaghlaichean agus eaglaisean a tha a' brosnachadh beatha sh矛mplidh ch霉ramach.

Mar as trice tha p貌saidhean Amish air an cumail ann an d矛omhair. Tha cuid de na h-Amish a' smaoineachadh gu bheil togail dhealbhan a' dol an aghaidh sgr矛obhaidhean a' Bh矛obaill oir gu bheilear ag adhradh iodhalan. A-nis, tha tr矛 cupaill air camarathan a' leigeil a-steach airson cunntas a dh猫anamh air cleachdaidhean suirghe, r猫iteachaidh agus p貌saidh ann an saoghal nan Amish. Mar as fhaisge a tha e a' tighinn air l脿 na bainnse, ch矛 sinn mar a bhios iad ag ullachadh bho taobh a-staigh agus taobh a-muigh na coimhearsnachd inntinneach seo.

This revealing documentary follows a group of young men and women who prepare for their wedding days, some within the Amish community and others who have made the difficult decision to leave their faith. They have grown up largely apart from the mainstream, in close-knit families and churches that emphasize simplicity and thrift.

As they prepare for their wedding ceremonies we get an exclusive look into the inner circle of the Amish. Amish weddings are held mostly behind closed doors, and Amish believe taking pictures violates biblical texts on graven images. Now three couples have allowed cameras to document the joyful rituals of courtship, engagement, and marriage among the Amish.

As they come closer to their wedding days, we see how things are prepared inside and outside the Amish community.
