Goddess is a 2013 Australian romantic comedy musical film, directed by Mark Lamprell. The film stars singer Ronan Keating, Laura Michelle Kelly and Magda Szubanski.
Elspeth Dickens ( Laura Michelle Kelly) dreams of finding her "voice" despite being stuck in an isolated farmhouse with her twin boys (Phoenix and Levi Morrison). A webcam she installs in her kitchen becomes her pathway to fame and fortune. Through singing her funny sink-songs into the webcam, Elspeth becomes a cyber-sensation.
While her husband James ( Ronan Keating) is off saving the world's whales, Elspeth is offered the chance of a lifetime. But when forced to choose between fame and family, the newly anointed internet goddess almost loses it all. [1]
Goddess was filmed, in part, in Sydney, Australia and Stanley, Tasmania. [4] The film is based on the original stage play Sinksongs, written and performed by Joanna Weinberg with music for the film written by Joanna Weinberg, Bryony Marks and Judy Morris. [5]
In early June 2014, Goddess opened the Maui International Film Festival to great reviews. [6]
In its opening weekend, Goddess grossed $512,445 in Australia. The film was shown on 207 screens, which gave it a per-screen average of $2,476. [7]
