This is the Wonderful Year (1968x12)

: 24, 1968

1666 was a year of miracles... In England unprecedented hail-storms, the Great Plague, and the Fire of London were all seen as signs that the hand of God was at work. While one sect of English Puritans expected the Second Coming of Christ, and others expected the Day of Doom, the Jews found a Messiah. Tonight's film tells the strange story of Sabbati Zevi and the wave of messianic ferment he unloosed on the world of 1666.
