Overview

This two-part TV movie was, of course, sparked by the November 1978 mass suicide of 913 people at the South American religious "colony" of Jonestown. The catalyst for this tragedy was cult-leader Reverend Jim Jones. The film traces the life of Jones from his days as an idealistic 1960s activist.
