Grecii contestă distribuția filmului „Odiseea”. Rolul Elenei din Troia, în centrul polemicilor

The film 'Odyssey' by Christopher Nolan has sparked controversy in Greece over its casting choices and fidelity to Homer's epic. Critics question the absence of Greek actors and the casting of Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy. The film, featuring Matt Damon as Odysseus, follows the hero's ten-year journey home after the Trojan War. While some defend the artistic freedom in adapting Greek epics, others argue it undermines cultural identity. The Greek government has provided significant funding for the film, which has also faced criticism from political groups. Despite the debates, the film is expected to perform well commercially.
