Starring Nicole Kidman, Dev Patel and Rooney Mara, LION tells an incredible tale of survival and heartache – this is one film you can’t miss!
Adapted from the true story A Long Way Home by Saroo Brierly, LION follows the story of five-year-old, Saroo who finds himself alone and travelling on the wrong train away from his home in Northern India. Frightened and bewildered, he ends up thousands of miles away, in chaotic Kolkata. Somehow, he survives living on the streets, dodging all sorts of terrors in the process.
Eventually ending up in an orphanage, Saroo is adopted by an Australian couple, and finds safety and love as he grows up in Hobart. Not wanting to hurt his adoptive parents’ feelings, he buries his past, his emotional need for reunification and his hope of ever finding his lost mother and brother. But a chance meeting with some fellow Indians re-awakens his secret yearnings.
With just a small store of memories, and the help of some newly-developed satellite-imaging technology, Saroo embarks on one of the greatest needle-in-a-haystack quests of modern times.
