Ventnor Film Society Screening - Oh My Goodness!
–
21 September, 2026
In a delightful romp through the sunny French countryside, five eccentric nuns face a desperate financial crisis at their local retirement home. To raise the €25,000 needed for repairs, they enter a gruelling regional bicycle race. The untrained sisters must overcome fierce athletic rivals and a hostile competing convent. After chaotic training mishaps, they resort to sneaky, less-than-holy tricks to secure a miracle victory and save their mission.
We know our audiences always love a light-hearted French comedy and Oh My Goodness! (Juste Ciel!) is a just that - a delightfully silly French farce that’s pure, warm-hearted fun from start to finish. Packed with laugh-out-loud slapstick, petty convent rivalries, and lovely French countryside scenery, it turns the classic sports-underdog story on its head. Light, warm, and wonderfully absurd, it’s the ultimate feel-good crowd-pleaser to sit back, relax, and enjoy.
