What happens

Ghadi (Arabic: غدي‎) is a 2013 Lebanese drama film directed by Amin Dora. The film was originally selected as the Lebanese entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 86th Academy Awards in a two-way race over Lara Saba's Blind Intersections. When the film's release date was moved from 26 September 2013 to 31 October 2013, it no longer met the eligibility dates and Blind Intersections became the official submission from Lebanon. The film was submitted the following year as Lebanon's official submission, but was not nominated. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
