The Department of Greek Education of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, in cooperation with the Hellenic Book club of New York, invites everyone to participate in a viewing of the Iconic Hellenic movie “Z”.
The film, which was directed by Costa-Gavras, is based on the novel “Z” by Vassilis Vassilikos. The event will be held at Archdiocesan Hellenic Cultural Center, which is located at 27-09 Crescent Street, Astoria, N.Y. on December 7th at 7:00 pm.
