A metaphor of the Flood in our epoch. 'The Flood' is the rain of violence that washes over us; 'Noah's Arc' is the train that runs through Mexico toward the United States; the migrants are 'the species' attempting to save their lives. Framed as a series of humanistic lessons for the directors' three year old daughter, Zafirah.
