Goddess of Slide: The Untold Story of Ellen Mcllwaine is a film by renowned Canadian documentary filmmaker and cinematographer Alfonso Maiorana. The screening was moderated by Canadian television personality Michael Williams.

This documentary pays tribute to Ellen Mellwaine, the Canadian musician who fought for her right to play the slide guitar.

Ellen Mcllwaine started her career by opening for iconic blues legends such as Odetta, Richie Havens, and Mississippi John Hurt.

Yet, it was the six remarkable nights she performed alongside Jimi Hendrix that significantly altered the course of her life.
