A filmmaker, along with his local guide, traverse the Yucatán in the days leading up to the "end of the world" with the idea of making his last movie. In the area where an asteroid hit the Earth 66 million years ago, taking the planet close to annihilation and eradicating the dinosaurs, they look at possible
locations for the film, even journeying to Chichen Itza on December 21, where they encounter a surrealistic gathering of New Agers and Mayan mystics. They meet a local TV reporter, who the filmmaker casts in
his psychedelic Western. After the film is shot, the misunderstood and egomaniacal filmmaker decides to remain in Mexico, editing his masterpiece, forever.
