In the early days of human history, two hunter-gatherers, Zed and Oh, are banished from their tribe for eating the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. Setting out on an epic journey through the ancient world, they encounter various biblical figures, including Cain and Abel, and try to rescue their love interests, Maya and Eema, who have been sold into slavery. Along the way, they encounter dangerous situations, comedic misunderstandings, and even a chance to save Abraham's son Isaac from being sacrificed. Through their misadventures, Zed and Oh learn the true meaning of friendship, loyalty, and redemption. Featuring an all-star cast, including Jack Black, Michael Cera, Oliver Platt, and David Cross, "Year One" is a hilarious and heartwarming comedy that retells the story of the beginning of civilization.
