A groundbreaking new reality series about Amish folk leaving their rural surroundings for the bright lights of New York City is set to launch.

Breaking Amish will follow the lives of five Amish and Mennonite 20 to 30-somethings who claim to have never left their surroundings prior to this trip.

A teaser clip released by the network follows one 21-year-old female character who is unable to make sense of an elevator as well as a 32-year-old male character who struggles to operate an ATM in order to withdraw cash. It also shows each of them shopping for non-Amish clothing, and lingerie, for the very first time.
