Synopsis:
This riveting, fact-based drama concentrates on the transformation of Vernon Howell into the self-made cult leader David Koresh. Failing as a musician, Howell turns to his strictly religious upbringing and uses his predatory charm to organise churches under his own leadership. But his ministry is tainted with both his obsession with rock-and-roll and his driven sexual appetites. Facing failure, Howell seizes control of an established group - the Branch Davidians. Vernon Howell now metamorphoses into David Koresh and, believing the end of the world is near, prepares to repopulate the world with the offspring of God - the children of Koresh himself.
He segregates everyone, even married couples, into men's and women's dormitories, reserving the sexual rights of marriage exclusively to himself, displaying a preference for girls as young as twelve years old. This corrupt prophet eventually accumulates 19 wives in a frenzy of misguided devotion and a calculatingly cruel madness that eventually results in tragedy.
