Rating: 10/10 (27 May 2017)

A true story of a young child called Saroo who when in the slums of India gets lost from his mother and siblings. He finds himself miles away in an area where his dialect is not spoken. After harrowing adventures he finds himself in a horrible child detention center. Eventually he is adopted by a couple in Australia.
When grown up he yearns for his family:
But can he find them?
Are they safe?
This is a real tear jerker with superb performances from the young and older Saroo.
The movie is compelling and says so much about love and family and throughout the picture it has vitally important things to say about the human condition.
Magnificent!
10/10
