Synopsis: "Goddess" stands for French "Déesse", the nickname of Citroën DS, the name of a famous car designed in the fifties. A young and well-situated Japanese man is dreaming of such a car, and one fine day he finds an offering on the net. He calls the seller (a man living in Australia), they agree upon the price and so he travels to Australia in order to buy the car. But when he reaches his destination, there's chaos all around: The seller as well as his wife lay dead in their house and a 17 year old girl lets him in and offers him something to eat. He walks out with horror but then comes back because he forgot to ask about the car... The girl lets him see the car, and then they start a 5 day trip through the outback, and, at the same time, a trip back in time into the early youth of the girl and into her family's chronicle.

Come on.

Come on!

When was the last time you washed?

He hurt me. He ripped

me open! He crushed me!

Don't move!

You're so full of dirt,

your body's so filthy!

It's a big one. This is for you.

You've done it, haven't you?

You've done it again!

She enjoyed it.

As much as you did.

Don't get jealous.

She's already blind!

God's angry!

Don't you know that?

Who says l cannot

make love to my daughter?

Who says l cannot make

love to my granddaughter?

We're free to do anything here.

Don't listen to that filthy, ugly,

hypocritical world ever again.

l love you.

l love you all.

We're going...

somewhere else.

Right, Mommy?

Do you know where to buy

some Japanese noodles?

How much money

to build a house here?

Do you know?

Right here.

You have not called

the little girl.

Mr. Hughes' little girl.

Do you wanna call her now?

No.

Thanks.

What the f*** can l do if

l find out she's really in trouble?

Nothing. Nothing l could do to stop

Greg from killing himself, his wife.

Nor to bring them back to life.

l...

l...

l don't know...

what or how...

you know?

It's a long story.

-Understand?

-Don't tell me. l trust you.

You're a good man.

How do you know?

l may be a serial killer...

a rapist...

or a monster.

l know.

My radar's just been serviced.

Sure, sure.

Mine's an older model.

Too old for that.

Well, if you try,

you can do it too.

You can do a lot of things.

Now, listen.

Can you hear the sound of death?

Close your eyes.

No.

-l know the sound of a car crash.

-Close your eyes.

You can hear the sound of death

when the insects hit the windscreen.

Come on, you can do it.

Sorry.

l can't close my eyes.

Sorry.

In the very beginning,

there was the explosion...

a huge explosion.

It was like a great big fireball...

more than a million million

times hotter than the sun.

And that was 14 billion years ago.

And the debris, including

the Earth that we're sitting on...

is still traveling outward,

further and further apart.

Above us in the sky...

there's millions and millions

of that same debris...

twinkling in the dark universe.

l can feel it, Mommy!

Can l touch them?

The stars are very,

very, very far away.

Their light takes millions...

and millions of years to reach us.

So what you're feeling right now...

is actually millions

of years in the past.

The sound of the explosion

is still traveling through the sky.

Can you hear it?

Mommy, hold your breath.

Come back here, honey!

l love you!

l love him too!

We're all sinners!

0kay. 0kay, it 's time for bed.

l don't wanna go.

Take me back to the city.

0kay, okay.

Now don't talk.

Make love to me.

You have two hours to sleep.

Relax. Sleep well.

Stay with me.

Please.

Take off your clothes.

Please.

It's getting very hard.

Sorry.

l can't control it.

But l thought you

didn't want to do it.

Sure. l don't wanna do it.

Is it uncomfortable?

Don't worry.

It will get used to it.

I've never made love

to anyone before.

l wanna do it now so badly.

Maybe I'll make love to it

after you've fallen asleep.

Do you mind?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Davidson. Janet Davidson.

At hospital, Lake Pendington Bay.

Evans. Jason Evans.

In Melbourne.

Cadd. Adrian....

Jones.

Known as Bob.

Maybe... we go back to the city.

0kay?

You have something urgent to do?

Somewhere to go?

Do you trust me?

Listen...

you know, take the money

and let me have the Goddess.

We'll go to beach together,

understand?

I'll teach you how to swim.

Bye.

Hey, you know swimming?

Take her with you.

l guarantee, swimming is much

more fun than dancing! Please!

I'm a honest man, okay?

A Japanese man!

I'm going to find another Goddess,

understand?

What does Tokyo smell like?

Noodle.

-You miss noodle.

-No. It's not noodle.

Sorry. I can't remember.

What does Tokyo sound like?

Noodle.

This has to be the last one.

Five more and we'll break

our 1989 record.

0ne more, thanks!

0ne for me too!

lf l lined up all the noodles

I've eaten, it 'd reach the moon.

Together with mine,

it would make a round trip to Mars.

I've cracked it.

What?

The password.

-You lost. You pay the bill. Thanks.

-No, no. Not again.

Bastard!

l won't be fooled this time.

That will make you

a millionaire. Bye.

Bullshit! Why don't

you use it if it works?

It's yours.

Tip him, you billionaire!

-I'm sorry.

-It's okay.

I've no use for it.

I'm going to get married next month!

Thanks for the noodles.

F*** you!

-You're late.

-Yeah, yeah.

It's evening.

Time to come home.

It's not l don't trust you.

It's just that...

l don't wanna see someone...

someone l care dead, gone...

leaving me alone, you know?

Alone in a world without noodles.

We found nothing except this.

Did it belong to your wife?

Yes.

We've found some blood

stains in the car. Not much.

Have a look.

l hope that Esther will contact

you or us in the next few days...

but we are expecting the worst.

You can see what l mean.

Is Momma okay?

She wasn't in the car?

No.

Police said when she disappeared

she was here alone at 7:30...

and left at 11:
00 with

an unidentified male customer.

They said Esther used

to come here to dance.

She loves to dance.

Marie?

-Marie?

-Yeah?

Let 's dance.

Dance. Come on. Come on.

Come on, love. Come on.

That 's it, love.

You can do this, love.

Yes.

-Good morning!

-Good morning.

I'm trying to mix our own

Chateauneuf Du Pape.

The original Chateauneuf Du Pape

was blended from 13 different grapes.

0ne gave it color,

another was for perfume...

another finesse, warmth, spice....

Mine's a mixture of chemicals.

Can you tell the difference?

Dad, they're the same.

No, they're not.

Honey, your mom's dead.

How's that?

l...

...l can't tell the difference.

-Good.

Sooner or later, we can create

everything. Right here!

Dad?

l went fishing.

This is for you.

You don't have to finish it.

Shut up.

That 's beautiful.

How many stars

do you think are up there?

0ne, two, three, four....

0ne, two....

-Is there anything in the dark?

-No.

Yes.

God.

No.

They're just black holes.

A star's a huge fireball.

When it burns out of fuel...

it collapses, dies...

becomes a black hole.

Sooner or later, there won't be

any stars left in the sky.

Just black holes.

No. Dad, I'm scared.

That'll be the end.

Dad.

You want to cuddle?

Isn't this bed a bit

small for you now?

Do you want to come to my bed?

I'm too nervous.

I've lost my sense of direction.

Yeah.

You need a guide dog, not radar.

He's not here.

Sh*t.

Thanks for bringing me here.

You're welcome.

This is the end of our journey.

Thanks for everything.

You don't have to go, okay?

Understand?

l don't have any choice.

No, don't. Please.

lf I'm not back in an hour,

you can take the car.

Sign whatever you want

on the papers and go back to Tokyo.

Bye.

Good luck!

Don't shoot! It's me!

It's me, understand?

He's here.

Everything's okay. Look...

l always thought l should tell you.

It's a long story, you know?
