Plot
As a young boy, Noah (Dakota Goyo) witnesses his father, Lamech (Marton Csokas), killed by a young Tubal-cain (Finn Wittrock). Many years later, an adult Noah (Russell Crowe) is living with his wife Naameh (Jennifer Connelly) and their sons Shem (Douglas Booth), Ham (Logan Lerman), and Japheth (Leo McHugh Carroll), but after seeing a flower grow instantly from the ground and haunted by vivid dreams of a great flood, Noah takes them to visit his grandfather, Methuselah (Anthony Hopkins).
On the way, they come upon a group of people recently killed and adopt the lone survivor, a girl named Ila (Emma Watson). Noah and his family are chased by Tubal-cain (Ray Winstone) and his men but seek refuge with the fallen angels known as the "Watchers", confined on Earth as stone golems (nephilim) for helping humans banished from the Garden of Eden. Methuselah gives Noah a seed from Eden and tells Noah that he was chosen for a reason. Returning to his tent that night, Noah plants the seed into the ground. The Watchers arrive the next morning and angrily discuss how they shouldn't help Noah until they see water spouting up from the spot that Noah planted the seed. An entire forest grows quickly, and the Watchers state that they will help Noah do the Creator's bidding. These trees are cut by the Watchers to build Noah's Ark with the help of Noah and his family.
After the arrival of birds to the Ark, Tubal-cain arrives with his followers and confronts Noah about his purpose for building the Ark. Noah defies Tubal-cain and remarks that there is no escape for the line of Cain. Tubal-cain retreats and decides to build weapons to defeat the Watchers when the rain starts, and the Ark must be taken. As the Ark nears completion, animals of various species enter the Ark and are put to sleep by incense.
With Ila having become enamored of Shem, Noah goes to a nearby settlement to find wives for Ham and Japheth, but upon witnessing cannibalism by a starving mob, he abandons his effort and begins to believe that the creator wants all of humanity dead, even Noah and his family. Thereafter, Methuselah cures Ila of sterility. Ham, searching for a wife on his own behalf, befriends the refugee Na'el (Madison Davenport).
