In the 1970’s, a religious group of people followed their leader to Guyana. They built a new community full of life and love. It seemed like a utopia that no one wanted to leave. 605 Adults and 304 Children never did. “605 Adults 304 Children” is an immersive and intimate short documentary filmed entirely by The Peoples Temple in Jonestown.
