Following sold out sessions at Melbourne International Film Festival, GODLESS: THE EASTFIELD EXORCISM is coming to audiences in SYDNEY, BRISBANE and ADELAIDE with special event Q&A screenings with Director Nick Kozakis and cast.
Lara is having horrific visions… and they’re getting worse. Her psychiatrist believes that the key to he treatment is to find the source of her trauma, hidden somewhere in Lara’s past.
Ron – Lara’s husband and devout christian man – has other plans. He believes that the problem is a spiritual one and an exorcism is the only way to save her soul. Spurred on by a ruthless exorcist and a congregation of zealots, they’ll put an innocent woman through hell while trying to send her to heaven.
Australian director Nick Kozakis is perhaps best known for his ARIA Award–nominated music videos for Tones and I. Here, he makes an impressive leap to features with a work that seizes well-worn exorcism tropes and radically inverts them – an achievement aided by a sterling local cast led by newcomer Georgia Eyers and Tim Pocock (X-Men Origins: Wolverine; Dance Academy).
Toxic masculinity, the dangers of zealotry and the hypocrisy of institutions that believe in the Devil much more readily than they would believe a woman come under fire in this bracing film, a thrilling example of horror that exposes the wickedness in our midst.
