Intolerance and its terrible effects are examined in four historical eras. In
ancient Babylon, a mountain girl is caught up in the religious rivalry that
leads to the city's downfall. In Judea, the hypocritical Pharisees condemn
Jesus Christ. In 1572 Paris, unaware of the impending St. Bartholomew's
Day
Massacre, two young Huguenots prepare for marriage. Finally, in modern
America, social reformers destroy the lives of a young woman and her
beloved.
