“The search begins”
Director
Garth Davis
Screenplay
Luke Davies
At just five years old, an Indian boy falls asleep on a train and wakes thousands of kilometers from home, lost on the streets of Calcutta and unable to recall the name of his village. After surviving countless dangers, he is adopted by an Australian couple who give him a new life on the other side of the world. Twenty-five years later, a memory drives him to trace his origins with only blurry images and technology to help him. An emotional drama based on a true story, an overwhelming journey about identity, memory and the unbreakable bond with one's roots.
