S6 E1 Mythological Cycle: Cessair

We kick off the actual season 6 premier (we promise this time) by traveling back to a time before the great flood.

Literally.

Cessair, the granddaughter of Noah is effectively sentenced to death by her own grandfather when he refuses to grant her entry on to the famous arc because of her religion.

What follows is a bizarre and unforgettable saga: three men, fifty women, and a desperate attempt to build a new society at the edge of the known world. There’s dark humor, explosive fates (quite literally), and a close look at how ancient myths got rewritten through the lens of Christianity.
