For just over two decades, the Portokalos family has brought us zany antics and wholesome, relatable interpersonal dilemmas. Writer - and now director - Nia Vardalos is a walking advertisement for the power of inclusive storytelling, having taken it upon herself to tap an underserved market by crafting a self-reflective narrative, and effectively introducing audiences to Greek culture in a way no creative had done before.
Following the death of their patriarch Gus, the Portokalos family travels to Greece for a family reunion, and to deliver Gus' journal to his old friends.
The sequel to the 2010 live-action movie focuses on sibling rivalry.
The film's storylines read as allegories for the queer experience and that's a source of solace for LGBTQIA+ fans!
