On Thursday, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced this year’s shortlist of potential Oscar contenders for the best foreign-language film. 92 films were submitted for consideration by their respective countries, and the final shortlist includes many familiar entries.

Angelina Jolie’s Cambodian film First They Killed My Father was completely snubbed, however, which surprised a number of people especially because it got a Golden Globe nod last Monday.

Here’s the final list of films written by country, movie name and director.

• Chile, A Fantastic Woman, Sebastián Lelio, director
• Germany, In the Fade, Fatih Akin, director

• Russia, Loveless, Andrey Zvyagintsev, director
• Senegal, Félicité, Alain Gomis, director
