(87 Minutes)

Resurrection, indigenous prophecies, and adventures around the globe — this is the story of Patrick McCollum. A spiritual leader and peace advocate, he finds himself at the very center of an ancient prophecy that could decide the fate of our planet. Pulled into McCollum’s world, acclaimed director Gabe Polsky will bring us across continents on a spiritual journey in which the absurd and profound merge.

“Hilarious and inspiring, Gabe Polsky’s adventure with an American original strikes a near-perfect balance between skepticism and wonder.”
The Hollywood Reporter - Scott Feinberg
“The Man Who Saves the World? is one of my favorite documentaries in years – leave it to Gabe Polsky to track down and chronicle one of the most colorful characters and craziest stories ever captured on film!”
