While We Are Together | A film about The Brasstown Morris Dancers

[@linpollitt8950]

I'm English and I enjoy watching Morris dancing at festivals and fairs. I find it extraordinary that it's being performed in a Southern state of the USA but you've put your own stamp on it and it's great. The costumes are wonderful but most of all it's the community spirit and joy that makes it so special. You're bringing together young and old to keep an ancient tradition alive. We English folk could learn a lot from you. Never stop dancing and banging your staffs! 😊

I danced Border Morris with "Hicks with Sticks" in Shepherdstown WV. I miss it tremendously--Morris Dancers are a wonderful family, and the comraderie, welcomeness, and fun they share are a blessing. I live in the Triad area of NC now, where there are unfortunately no Morris sides at all...

Just watched this again for the first time in a few years. As our group grows older and we know our days may be numbered this beautiful archive of our lovely community becomes even more precious. So grateful for the fact that you noticed us , Josh, and found us worth recording , our story wroth telling. Xoxo

What a great film. As a member of a Border Morris side in Kent, England, its wonderful to see it being performed in the USA. Love your energy and enthusiasm, amazing.

They're all great, but those garland dancers are ADORABLE.

To the producer of this video: When you did deep and hold your head high, our beautiful world will amaze you in the form you never even imagine. Keep up this great work and who knows where you will be in 5-10 years. Bravo, awesome.......and I just heard that this movie has been officially upgraded to A+. Why and by whom? By me and by me, surprise!!!!. Why all this? Because when good humans toil for what is good for humanity, some one out there has to notice. Thank you for this lovely documentary.

"While We Are Together seams like a great title but I have not watched the movie yet. I just saw the title and my heart started to get loose and lighter. Back to the full movie but just before I do, i do not like movies where blood is spilled for no tangible reason. I hope there is no blood in this video but love, respect and human relationships in action.
