Follow filmmakers as they offer a sweeping examination of forecasts predicting December 21, 2012 as the end of days in this sobering documentary. Will mankind fall for good on the date predicted by the Mayan calendar? Detailed studies of The Book of Revelations, the medieval predictions of Merlin, and the Chinese oracle of the I Ching all point to that one fateful date. Perhaps more perplexing is the revelation that a web bot designed to predict the future has independently concluded that revelers shouldn't waste their time planning a New Year's Eve 2013 Party. Conversations with skeptics who have based their careers on dispelling doomsday rumors reveal that even the experts can't simply write this one off, and after presenting all of the evidence, the filmmakers invite the viewer to draw their own conclusion.
