Director, writer, and actor George Khabbaz was a guest at Hôtel-Dieu de France, where he participated in the screening of the film "Ghadi," invited by the PSYNEMA cinema club at the hospital. The film explores the story of a father who refuses to admit his son, who has Down syndrome, into a care facility despite pressure from the neighborhood where the Lippa family resides.

Dr. Rami Bou Khalil, Head of the Psychiatry Department at Hôtel-Dieu, delivered a speech praising George Khabbaz's unique approach to a societal issue, saying, "I am pleased to open today's second meeting organized by the Psychiatry Department at the hospital, a quarterly meeting aimed at shedding light on mental health."

"Today, our guest is the writer and director George Khabbaz, known for his creative talent and commitment to social issues through his attachment to Lebanon and its culture," he added.

In turn, Khabbaz thanked his hosts, saying, "I love people with special needs; they are characterized by sincerity and genuine love. With them, I discovered a beautiful world of transparency. I feel like I am with a group of angels. I am excited to make a film about them after discovering that society treats them with superiority and hostility."

After the film screening, Dr. Antoine Kassab conducted a dialogue with Khabbaz, addressing queries and questions from the audience.

At the conclusion, Dr. Bou Khalil presented Khabbaz with an honorary shield of appreciation.
