1968

A must watch film, good plot, amazing scenes and visual effects

Brilliant movie, excellent story line, great performances, beautiful music. A must watch film.

A film about an epic night in Greece. The film tells the story of the 1968 basketball europe cup's final. You will see how AEK of Greece won the legends of slavia Prague. Inside of some really emotional fictional stories of the people that lived that time, the director show us just how important this match was for everyone in Greece. Some are really painful and some are really funny. I personally likedthe story of the guy that promised a wedding to the woman he loved (but didnt want to marry) if AEK wins. The dirctor also hymns AEK as the mediation of the stories of the refugees that came from m. Asia at 1922. the highlight line of the movie ''the others may win with numbers, we will win with our history" i thinks describes it better. Its a story about a team that reach the highest mountain but never forgot where it came from.

It is a bittersweet film that will bring tears on your eyes but also smile on your face. A bittersweet film like history of Greece. Like history of the team of AEK. (Athletic Union from Constantinoupolis (Instanbul)). 1968 it's a new kind. A docu-fiction that by focusing on the win of European Cup from AEK Basketball team, telling the story of Greek refugees from Minor Asia and Istanbul, the story of Greek Dictatorship (1967-1973) and the facts that change the world on year of 1968.

Boulmetis (A touch of spice - Politiki kouzina) challenged himself with this film. The impossible effort of balancing 1000 meters above ground, in a tight rope, connecting acting with documentary seemed to be "piece of cake" for Tassos. For someone witnessed the story a "10" is underrating.
