Members of the 2004 Greek National Championship Soccer Team attended the New York premiere of King Otto, the critically acclaimed film about their odds-defying European Cup victory under the leadership of “King” Otto Rehhagel. Following the screening on March 27 at the Museum of the Moving Image, the Hellenic Film Society presented a panel discussion with all the participants, followed by a Q&A session with the audience. The discussion with panelists midfielder Giorgos Karagounis, goalkeeper Antonios Nikopolidis, coach Otto Rehhagel, assistant coach Ioannis Topalidis, and director Christopher Andre Marks, was moderated by Stelios Taketzis and Anna Eliopoulos of Cosmos FM Radio.
