Based on the novella "The Tinted Venus," Oh, My Goddess tells the story of one man's struggle with the Goddess Aphrodite (Kathy Voytko) who has been trapped inside a statue since the debacle of the Trojan War. Three thousand years later, she is stolen and winds up across the globe in New York City. Lee (Jim Moye) has everything the modern man could want: a beautiful and smart fiancée, a great Manhattan apartment with a 52" LCD TV, and he owns a very successful business. Unfortunately for Lee, the engagement ring he puts on the stolen statue awakens Venus from her imprisonment. Lee has to quickly learn how to handle a Goddess, outwit two conniving criminals and avoid arrest by one very well connected police detective!
