Hearts and Hands dramatically presents a vital part of American history only now beginning to be told - the role played by women and their textiles in the nineteenth century's great movements and events including the Civil War, the abolition of slavery, westward expansion, the suffrage and temperance movements. The film explores the astonishing lives and accomplishments of ordinary, often anonymous women as well as chronicling the lives of extraodinary individuals such as Harriet Tubman, Elizabeth Keckley, Frances Willard and Abigail Scott Duniway.
