SHABTAI ZVI / FALSE MESSIAH

Historical film

Based on a true story of Shabtai Zvi, a Jewish rabbi, who proclaimed himself a Messiah and made tens of thousands of people believe him. According to the Zohar, the original text of Kaballah, the year 1648 was to be the year of Israel's redemption by the Messiah. Keeping this in mind Shabtai conceived and partly carried out a plan which was of the gravest consequences for the whole of the Jewish community and whose effects are felt even at the present time.
