Presented and narrated by Orson Welles, who also hosts some segments, the film depicts many of Nostradamus' predictions as evidence of Nostradamus' ability, though as with other works, nothing is offered which conclusively proves his accuracy. The last quarter discusses Nostradamus' supposed prediction for the then future of the 1980s, 1990s and beyond. There are no scientifically testable predictions directly depicted, only suggestions and allusions. ## Credits - **Director:** [Robert Guenette](https://cinepixo.com/people/robert-guenette) - **Screenplay:** [Robert Guenette](https://cinepixo.com/people/robert-guenette), [Alan Hopgood](https://cinepixo.com/people/alan-hopgood) - **Original Music Composer:** [William Loose](https://cinepixo.com/people/william-loose) - **Producer:** [David L.
