The Shakers: Hands to Work, Hearts to God (1984)

1h 0m | PG-13

⭐ 6.7 / 10

They called themselves the United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing, but because of their ecstatic dancing, the world called them Shakers. Ken Burns creates a moving portrait of this particularly American movement, and in the process, offers us a new and unusually moving way to understand the Shakers.
