El Arca : ウィキペディア英語版
Noah's Ark (2007 film)

''Noah's Ark'',〔http://www.filmexport.com/interno/what%27s_new/immagini/presbook_english.pdf〕 ''El Arca'' ("The Ark") in the original English/Spanish version, is a 2007 Argentine-Italian film directed by Juan Pablo Buscarini and based on Noah's Ark.〔"(El Arca )." ''The New York Times''. Retrieved on December 7, 2008.〕 The film focuses more on the animals' point of view. The story tends to follow the traditional biblical story; however, both the humans and the animals involved are seen as "talking" creatures throughout the film.
==Plot==
In the opening scene, animals and humans are seen acting out the seven deadly sins: pride (the peacock), envy (the snake), sloth (the sloth), lust (the hedgehog), gluttony (the toad), wrath (the mandrill), and greed (the human). This results in their mutual doom, as they are killed or captured and taken to market where the survivors are enslaved and the remains of the killed animals are sold.
God surveys the market, witnessing the assorted evils, and declares to his sidekick Angel that he will impose Judgment Day upon the sinful world. A chance encounter with the gentle and devoted Noah, who purchases the freedom of the enslaved man despite his own poverty, convinces him to give humanity one last chance.
God appears as a heavenly light to Noah and tells him to build an ark, upon which he will board his family and two of every animal, to survive the world-enveloping flood He will send. Noah's family, already unhappy with Noah's leadership, believes he has lost his mind, particularly when he fashions a model of the ark out of mashed potatoes (a parody of Roy Neary's mashed-potatoes Devil's Tower from ''Close Encounters of the Third Kind'') and begins cutting down his father's forest to begin its construction.
Noah sells his home to the greedy, dishonest merchants Farfan and Esther for a flock of pigeons to deliver messages to all the animals of the world. However, the birds immediately abandon their task and head for a jungle strip club to celebrate their freedom. Only one pigeon, Pepe, remains on mission, but is attacked by the animals he encounters until he is rescued by the lioness Kairel, secretary to King Sabu and Queen Oriana. Kairel delivers Noah's message to Sabu, who calls an emergency meeting of the animal world.
Sabu's spoiled libertine son Xiro has gotten a mangled portion of one of Noah's messages and mistakes the announcement of apocalyptic doom as an invitation to a pleasure cruise. Xiro throws a tantrum after Kairel disqualifies all of Xiro's potential cruise-mates for lack of intelligence, and the tiger Dagnino sees an opportunity to seize the crown of the post-flood world's animal kingdom.
As Noah single-handedly completes the ark (an impressive but not Biblically-accurate craft with a helm, thousands of luxury cabins, and other features more suited to a modern cruise liner), the animals arrive en masse. Kairel has been sent along to organize and supervise the trip, but the procession grinds to a halt when the herbivores demand assurance that the carnivores won't devour them once they're aboard. Xiro (who has spent the entire trip making out with the mean-spirited lioness Bruma in a private litter) fails to make a decision, allowing Dagnino to gain the animals' respect by declaring that he will personally punish any act of violence on the voyage.
As the rain begins to fall, the animals stampede onto the ark. Bruma pauses to taunt the doomed Kairel, only to be smashed through the gangplanks by a toppling hippopotamus (and presumably drowning). Xiro impulsively grabs Kairel and brings her aboard the ark in Bruma's place.
Inspecting Noah's cottage, Farfan and Esther notice the ark in the distance. Their ridicule turns to panic as the water rises around them, and they barely manage to scramble onto the ark unnoticed. Inside, Kairel attempts to maintain some semblance of order and convince Xiro to take his duties seriously, but Xiro flees to a hastily-assembled club where he becomes infatuated with the seductive panther Panthy as she performs ''I Want to Live'', a carnivore-themed parody of ''I Will Survive.'' However, Panthy is part of Dagnino's small cabal of carnivores who intend to discredit and overthrow Xiro, then establish a new order in which all prey species are bred and fattened in captivity until they are consumed.
Kairel finally gets Xiro to face the truth of their situation, and Xiro makes a sincere effort at governance. He grows closer to Kairel, but finds bureaucracy stifling and is still infatuated with Panthy, to Kairel's jealous dismay.
Trapped below decks with the animals, Farfan and Esther disguise themselves as a fictional animal species ("grasswhoppers") to avoid being discovered as humans. The disguises backfire when the pair's misadventures leave them under a pile of animal dung which is hauled to the top deck for disposal. Believing a pair of dangerous wild animals have escaped the hold, Noah's sons and daughters attempt to catch or kill them. In the chaos, Farfan, Esther, and Noah plunge back into the depths of the ark. Noah's eldest son, Japeth, volunteers to rescue him, but quickly retreats upon hearing frightening noises below (which turn out to be the hippopotamus suffering intestinal distress). Noah's faithful pigeon Pepe tries to fly down to Noah, but instead plummets helplessly because of his injuries. Noah's sons fight over the helm and break it. Ashamed and desperate, Noah's family prays for God's help.
Farfan and Esther knock Noah unconscious and abandon him. Feeling cocky with Noah out of the way, Farfan begins taunting the animals until he inadvertently strikes Dagnino. The two humans escape uninjured, but Dagnino tears off the lower half of Farfan's 'hide,' which is all he needs for his scheme. Panthy lures Xiro to her cabin, where Dagnino's minions use the torn disguise and tomato juice to frame Xiro for the 'murder' of the grasswhoppers. Dagnino assumes control and has Xiro locked up in a storeroom, but Xiro's herbivore friends quickly unravel the deceit and convince Kairel of the truth.
Noah regains consciousness and tends to Pepe before sending him on a mission to find land. Xiro has been imprisoned directly below and overhears Noah's words of encouragement, mistaking them for a personal message from "the voice of his lineage." When his friends free him, Xiro races to confront Dagnino, who has captured the other herbivores. (Xiro's group challenges Dagnino with the Maori ritual known as a haka.) The battle between Dagnino and Xiro ends when the ark, having drifted into the Arctic, runs into an ice floe. The sudden stop pitches Dagnino and his minions through a wall, in which their heads are stuck fast.
The animals begin to panic again, threatening to flee onto the ice until Xiro finally asserts his authority with a mighty roar. Xiro delivers a speech that rallies the animals behind him (even many of Dagnino's gang, to Dagnino's chagrin). On the upper deck, Noah has made his way back up to his family, who are likewise now rallied behind him. Noah and his sons begin repairing the helm.
God relents and allows Angel to shut off the rain, bringing out the sun. Xiro realizes the pitch for the ship's torches will melt the ice, and puts the animals to work spreading barrels of it across the floe. Xiro lights the pitch, breaking up the floe and freeing the ark.
Farfan and Esther, believing the ark has run aground, break out and fall onto the floe just as the ark departs. They are last seen fleeing the hungry polar bears who have elected to remain behind in their natural habitat.
Pepe returns to the ark with an olive leaf, but is once again inadvertently clobbered before he can reach his goal. Xiro and Kairel reconcile their different ways as the animals (including a caged Panthy, and Dagnino's gang still stuck in the section of wall) celebrate with a party on the open deck. God enjoys the festivities from above, but admonishes Angel for leaving the rainbow on.
During the end credits, God and Angel bicker over the contents of God's work-in-progress book.
