The age-old Biblical tale tells how God sent a flood to destroy the wicked. But Noah, because of his obedience, was forewarned to build an ark, and gather two of each of the Earth's creatures to populate the new world. This program looks behind the well-known story for clues as to who this righteous man of God really was. Using archival materials and scholarly research, the documentary pieces together the life of the humble farmer who was favored by God. Artwork and reenactments paint a detailed portrait of Noah. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, All Movie Guide
