It's a fast day called Yom Kippur. During Yom Kippur we fast for 25 hours and pray to asking God, asking Him to forgive us for our mistakes from the previous year.
The Torah states that this day has been given to us for atonement of sins (Leviticus 16:30, referring to Yom Kippur). On that day, we fast and pray and beg God to forgive us for all sins which we committed during the year, whether intentionally or not. Our tradition is that the ten days from Rosh Hashanah until Yom Kippur are when the world and its inhabitants are judged for that year (Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 16a and 18a).
