Noah's Ark (Portuguese: A Arca de Noé) also known as Noah's Ark – A Musical Adventure is a 2024 animated musical comedy film directed and written by Sérgio Machado with co-direction by Alos di Leo. The film is a Brazil-India co-production and was inspired by poems written by the musicians Vinicius de Moraes and Tom Jobim as well and it follows two brother mice named Tom and Vini who are searching for good luck while seeking into the Ark.[1]

The film was first released in South Africa on January 5, 2024, and in Brazil on November 7, 2024.

Plot

Tom and Vini are two mice who like to sing and play music. They surprise a conversation between Noah and God and realise that Earth will be flooded.

Tom and Vini try to board the ark Noah and his family (Susanah, his granddaughter and Ruth, his wife) have prepared. But Noah refuses as both Tom and Vini are male. As all animal couples are entering the ship, while Nina the female mouse, arrives, Vini leaves, despite Tom's protests, so that his friend can be saved.

Vini is saved from drowning by Alfonso the cockroach and his crew sailing on a small boat, while at the same time, Kilgore the swallow bird tries to find the ark alongside Sonya the dove and a pink humpback whale.Vini then arrives at the ark and they come aboard through a whole before it was led by the carnivores like a brown bear, a gorilla, a jaguar and a couple of hyenas who have entered the food storage room to help themselves. Baruk the lion who leads the group alongside his rattlesnakes wants take control, and organises a singing contest. But Baruk's singing abilities are weak leading to Vini and Tito perform for him behind a curtain. When the trick is discovered, all animals stop recognising the authority of the cheater It is also the moment when arks finally reaches land and all the occupants are saved.
