LION/Movie

The story is about a 5 year old poor boy from the country who fell asleep on a train and went to Kolkata, 1600km away from his home.

His native language was Hindi but the people in Kolkata speak Bengal, even though they live in same country.

While was in Kolkata, he was almost kidnapped. He ran away from all the cruel people.

I can't imagine how much fear he felt.

Luckily, he was protected by the police and spent time in an orphanage. Later, he was adopted by a married Australian couple.

After growing up in Australia, he decided to find his Indian family.

One of his friend suggested that he find his hometown using Google Earth.

"We can go everywhere with Google," he said. He tried to find home but he only had faint memories of his childhood, so it took him 5 years to find it.

He was finally able to see his mother and younger sister 25 years after he was lost.

However, his older brother, who was with him when he lost, had already passed away in a train accident.

Now he lives in Australia and every year he visits his Indian family in India.

This is a true story.

What a beautiful story this is.

His brother must have led him back to India.

Very good job! It seems like an interesting and touching movie.
