Jesus of Siberia

Description

In this episode, we venture into the Siberian wilderness to meet Jesus. Sergei Torop proclaimed himself to be "Vissarion," the son of God, in 1989. He now rules over a large swath of the Siberian mountains, commanding a flock of thousands. His followers are engineers, scientists, artists, and other intellectuals from all over Europe. They have chosen to join him in an agrarian-style community, living on strict vegan diets-and on prayer.
