Goddess explores rural Bengali life in 1860. Doyamoyee lives a village with her husband Umaprasad. When her husband goes to Calcutta to educate himself, Doyamoyee takes care of her father-in-law. Asleep one night, he has a vision that his daughter-in-law is the reincarnation of the goddess Kali. Everyone in the village begins to believe Doyamoyee has supreme power, an otherworldly deity that controls their fate. When Umaprasad returns from Calcutta, he's shocked by all this fanaticism.
