December 21, 2012: the end date of the sophisticated Long Count
Calendar created by the ancient Maya in Central America. Countless
books and websites, magazine articles and newspaper headlines debate
its meaning, with enthusiasts in two camps: those forecasting
apocalypse - the end of time - and those who see a coming renewal, a
rebirth of consciousness.
Adding fuel to the debate, some scientists see the increasing number
of natural disasters in recent years as evidence of a catastrophic
climax of events in 2012. How much of what we're hearing is science
and how much is superstition? In this film the leading researchers,
writers and scientists in the field tell us exactly what this date
means to them, why it's important, and what we should expect.
