A young girl who believes that the world will end in 2012 lives only for the present. Working in a bookstore, she spends her days on menial day-to-day tasks and sitting on a roof to anticipate the end of all things.

In a world where the future appears bleak and hopeless, should we prepare for a painless end, or it possible for us to stand up and make a change?
