Synopsis

Based on the non-fiction book A Long Way Home by Saroo Brierly, Lion was nominated for six Oscars at the 89th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Dev Patel), and Best Supporting Actress (Nicole Kidman). It tells the story of a 5-year-old boy growing up in India in the 1980s, who accidentally falls asleep on a stationed train and ends up hundreds of miles away in Calcutta, where he doesn't speak the language. From there, he is adopted by an Australian couple and lives with them in Hobart, Tasmania. Many years later, while living in Melbourne and studying hotel management, Saroo begins a search for his home village and his biological family.
