A global twistor correspondence for pseudo-Riemannian conformal structures of signature \((++--)\) with self-dual Weyl curvature is studied. Near the conformal class of the standard indefinite product metric on \(S^2 \times S^2\), there is an infinite-dimensional moduli space of such structures whose null geodesics are all periodic. Some of these classes are represented by scalar-flat indefinite Kähler metrics. See also \textit{L. J. Mason, L. P. Hughston} and \textit{P. Z. Kobak} (eds.) [Further advances in twistor theory. Vol. II. Integrable systems, conformal geometry and gravitation, New York, NY: Wiley (1995; Zbl 0828.53070)] and \textit{C. Lebrun} and \textit{L. J. Mason} [J. Differ. Geom. 61, No.~3, 453--535 (2002; Zbl 1070.53022)].
