Thirty-eight percent of Americans believe in the story of Creation as described in the Bible. In rural Kentucky stands a monument to this belief system: the Ark Encounter, a taxpayer-funded museum housed within a massive recreation of Noah’s Ark that looks to reconcile Christian creationist belief with the fossil record and provide a dubious counterargument to secular science like the theory of evolution. This chilling and timely documentary examines this ongoing culture war through one of its most prominent battlegrounds. — Corey Craft
