New York Greek Film Expo Wraps Up Its Largest Festival Yet
The New York Greek Film Expo, led by the Hellenic Film Society, concluded its annual festival with record attendance across NYC and New Jersey, including a finale in Queens.
The 11-day festival featured 13 screenings from Oct. 12, including venues in Manhattan, Fort Lee in New Jersey, and Astoria, along with an array of awards and a retrospective on Greek filmmaker Pantelis Voulgaris.
"We are overwhelmed by the audience response to this year’s expo, which saw its largest audience to date, and we’re thrilled that, for many, it was their first time attending a Greek film,"
said Maria C. Miles, Hellenic Film Society’s president. The festival wrapped up with a finale weekend at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria.
