As the clock counted down to the 21st century, the world faced the largest potential technological disaster to ever threaten humanity: a bug that could cause computers to misinterpret the year 2000 as 1900, sowing chaos throughout the world. Crafted entirely through archival footage, this documentary is a prescient and often humorous look back at the cooperative efforts and mass hysteria that surrounded this millennial milestone -- and raises concerns about our current dependence on complex systems vulnerable to future glitches.
