Lacking materials, Noah takes his three sons to Nod, a city in decline. The family tries, in vain, to convince their friends & neighbors to join them, and is ridiculed and attacked throughout the decades it takes them to fulfill God's command. Watch Noah & his family try to care not only for themselves while at sea, but for their vast menagerie as well. Experience their stress at being cooped up together for more than a year. When their trying journey is finally complete, marvel at the wonder of God's reward for Noah's unquestioning obedience and devotion to Him.
