Newly elected congressman Evan Baxter (Steve Carell) seems to have it made — a new home, a promising career — until God (Morgan Freeman) appears and commands him to build an ark in preparation for a biblical-scale flood. As Evan resists the absurd mission, his life unravels: animals arrive two-by-two, his job is threatened, his family is alarmed, and his faith is tested. In this modern-day take on the Noah legend, Evan must decide whether to answer the call and become the unlikely vessel of a higher purpose.
