Ras Noah and the Hawk

2005 · 104 min · Comedy · Music

A modern-day twist on the Genesis flood narrative set in Jamaica.

In the wake of Hurricane Ivan, a prodigal son returns to his Jamaican community bearing strange revelations: he is the 'chosen one', a great flood is coming, and God has instructed him to––among other things––capture a hawk. Or was it to build an ark? Much to his father's chagrin, this spiritual mission has jeopardised the family's prospect of becoming respected and influential in the community.
