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]
