Documentary Description
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. Featured in the film are Graham Hancock, John Major
Jenkins, Daniel Pinchbeck, Alberto Villoldo, Anthony Aveni, Robert
Bauval, Jim Marrs, Walter Cruttenden, Lawrence E. Joseph, Douglas
Rushkoff, John Anthony West and Benito Vegas Duran.
