Based on the runaway best selling series of books by Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye, Left Behind introduces us to several people abruptly facing an apocalyptic event referred to by religious theologians as the Rapture of the Church. The film’s central characters, journalist Buck Williams (Kirk Cameron) and airline pilot Ray Steele (Brad Johnson), look for answers amid chaos and anarchy after millions of people around the globe suddenly vanish simultaneously in the twinkling of an eye.
