The film follows the origin of NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo who was named 2021’s NBA All-Star MVP. So, it makes sense why WhatsApp signed a deal with the NBA star. According to Variety, WhatsApp contacted the NBA start back in February this year for the film.
Naija Odyssey is an origin story
Giannis Antetokounmpo has an interesting origin story, being born to a Nigerian family living in Greece. It will follow his story of being torn between two worlds. “In Greece, I was Nigerian. I Nigeria, I was Greek.” So, you can expect an emotional affair. The film itself will be narrated by both Giannis and his mother Veronica. Running only 12 minutes long, it’ll be relatively short and sweet.
