Jeremiah led a long and incident-filled life, trying to convert the unconverted and dangerously challenging the authority of King Nebuchadnezzer and his evil son, Merodach. The film follows Jeremiah as he abandons his family and the woman he loves to deliver God's message in Jerusalem. His warnings about the Holy City being destroyed by the Babylonians results in him being branded a traitor and persecuted. But Jeremiah will not give up, suffers imprisonment and risks his life for his holy mission.

This moving epic is directed by leading film and TV director Harry Winer.
