As a young boy, Noah witnesses his father, Lamech, killed

by a young Tubal-cain. Many years later an adult Noah is

living with his wife Naameh and their sons Shem, Ham,
and Japheth. After seeing a flower grow instantly from the
ground and being haunted by dreams of a great flood, Noah
takes them to visit his grandfather Methuselah.
They encounter a group of people recently killed and adopt
the lone survivor, a girl named Ila. Noah and his family are
chased by the murderers and 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
debate whether they should help Noah until they see water
spout from the spot where Noah planted the seed. Once a
forest grows instantly, the Watchers agree to help Noah and
his family build an ark.
After birds fly to the ark, Tubal-cain arrives with his followers
and confronts Noah. 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 and take the ark. As the ark nears completion,
animals of various species enter the ark and are put to sleep
with incense.
With Ila having become enamored of Shem, Noah goes to a
nearby settlement to find wives for Ham and Japheth, but
upon witnessing the settlers' exchanging their daughters for
food, he abandons his effort and begins believing that the
creator wants all of humanity dead. Back at the ark, he tells
his family that he will not seek wives for his younger sons.
After the flood they will be the last humans and there will be
no new human generations.
Devastated that he will be alone his entire life, Ham runs
into the forest. Naameh begs Noah to reconsider but, when
he will not, she goes to Methuselah for help. Later, in the
forest, Ila encounters Methuselah who cures her infertility.
Meanwhile, Ham, searching for a wife on his own, befriends
the refugee Na'el.
After it starts raining, Tubal-cain becomes angry that he was
not chosen to be saved and instigates his followers to make

a run for the ark. Noah finds Ham in the forest and forces
Ham to save himself but leaves Na'el to die when she is
caught in an animal trap. Noah's family enter the ark except
for Methuselah, who remains in the forest and is swept
away by the rushing waters. The Watchers hold off Tubalcain and his followers as long as possible, sacrificing
themselves to protect the ark from the mob before
ascending to heaven. As the flood drowns the remaining
humans, an injured Tubal-cain climbs onto the ark and
solicits Ham, playing on anger toward Noah for allowing
Na'el to die.
Ila discovers that she is pregnant as the rains stop and begs
the creator to let the child live. Noah interprets the ending of
the rain to mean he must ensure the extinction of humans
and, against his wife's protests, resolves that, if the child is a
girl, he will kill her. Months pass, and Ila and Shem build a
raft to escape Noah's resolve, but Noah discovers and
burns it. Ila gives birth to twin girls. Tubal-cain, Ham and
Shem attack Noah. As they fight, the ark strikes a mountain
and Ham kills Tubal-cain. Noah prepares to stab Ila's twins,
but he spares them upon looking at his granddaughters and
only feeling love.

Upon exiting the ark, Noah goes into isolation in a nearby

cave and Ham leaves his kin to live alone. Having
reconciled at the behest of Ila, Noah blesses the family as
the beginning of a new human race and all witness an
immense rainbow.
