Country Corners traces the history of the country dance, which has been a traditional activity in America since the arrival of the first settlers in New England. Emphasis is on the contra dance as a unique social ritual. Two sides of contra dancing is shown: traditional, as danced by the Ed Larkin dancers of East Bethel, Vermont, & the less orthodox form presented by contemporary dancers.
