On his first trip to a city, a small Amish boy sees a murder that involves detectives. Detective John Book becomes his champion, hiding out in an Amish community. The Amish men raise a barn for a new couple soon to be married while the women quilt for the bride. This movie managed to incorporate tremendous action and perhaps the best vision of the Amish culture that has ever been filmed. It is rated (R)for violence, partial nudity (Kelly McGillis takes a sponge bath.) and some profanity.
Here’s a YouTube link (G) that has the quilting in one of the clips:
