UGO: A Homecoming Story
“We don’t know who we are, until we know where we are from.”
This is true to so many in the diaspora community as it was true for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Greek-Nigerian NBA superstar has achieved incredible heights in his life—1st round draft pick, 2x MVP,
7x All-Star, NBA Champ—but he had never been to his homeland of Nigeria in all 29 years of his life.
We had the incredible opportunity to tell Giannis’ homecoming story on his first-ever trip to Nigeria.
This 31 minute documentary on Amazon Prime is about discovering where our stories started,
and reconnecting with our heritage to gain a deeper understanding of who we are.
