Frequently asked questions

What is Rise about? Toggle content

"Rise" is based on the triumphant real-life story of a remarkable family that produced the first three-brother NBA championship team in history: Giannis, Thanasis, and Kostas Antetokounmpo. The film showcases the Antetokounmpo family's unique blend of Nigerian heritage, Greek nationality, and extraordinary athletic abilities. Against all odds, they overcame incredible obstacles to achieve their dreams and become world-class athletes. In 2021, Giannis and Thanasis helped the Milwaukee Bucks win their first championship in 50 years, while Kostas played for the previous season's champions, the Los Angeles Lakers. Their parents emigrated from Nigeria to Greece with their five children under constant threat of deportation and struggling to make ends meet. Despite starting late in basketball, they discovered their exceptional talents on the court and worked tirelessly to become world champions with help from an agent who facilitated Giannis' entry into the NBA draft in 2013. This pivotal moment transformed not only his life but also that of his entire family forever. contain some sequences that may affect photosensitive viewers contains some sequences that may affect photosensitive viewers contains some sequences that may affect photosensitive viewers contains some sequences that may affect photosensitive viewers
