VENUS & VITALIS

In this unique rom-com the goddess Venus breaks off her two-thousand-year romance with Helen of Troy, to open a love clinic in the Hollywood Hills, getting romantically involved with a Chippendales dancer moonlighting as a Cal Tech calculus professor. Ultimately Venus saves the universe through her mission from God to bring true love, great sex, water skiing cats and eternal life to all of humanity.
 
"In Hollywood, sex is a religion"

"A comedy that leaves no sacred cows unmilked"

Screenplay by Michael Karp
When the immortal goddess Venus is dumped by the nymphomaniac Helen of Troy, her father Uranus sets Venus up on a date with the true love of her life, a Hollywood cinematographer who has also just been dumped by Helen of Troy, for a Chippendales dancer. Can Venus win the cinematographer's love? Or will Uranus unleash the fires of Hades on the narcissists and sinners of Hollyweird?
When the immortal goddess Venus is dumped by the insatiable Helen of Troy, her cosmic father Uranus declares humanity corrupted by lust. He gives Venus three days to prove true love still exists — by winning the heart of a Hollywood cinematographer who’s still hopelessly hung up on Helen. If Venus fails, Uranus will unleash the fires of Hell upon humanity. But if Venus succeeds, mankind will be blessed with eternal life and eternal love.
When the immortal goddess Venus is dumped by the insatiable Helen of Troy, her cosmic father Uranus gives her three days to prove humans are still capable of true love — by winning the love of a heartbroken Hollywood cinematographer who also fell victim to Helen. But if Venus fails, Uranus will unleash the fires of Hell upon “Hollyweird,” purging the narcissists and sinners who believe that sex is more important than love.
