Description
The story behind the dark origin of "Don't drink the Kool-Aid".
In the 1950s a preacher named Jim Jones starts a cult in Indiana. He envisions a multiracial, tight-knit* community where everyone succeeds. Sounds good, right? Well, in theory. Things take a turn for the worse and the man who once preached equality and respect suddenly thinks he's the voice of God, and he must be worshipped. What started out as a search for a utopia, ends in mass tragedy.
*Tight-knit = muy unido/estrecho, hablando sobre grupos de personas.
