Saroo proves to be too young, and is told by his brother to wait at the train station, and when his brother doesn’t come back, he crawls into an empty train and falls asleep. The story begins in 1987 in Northern India, when five year old Saroo (played by the utterly charming Sunny Pawar) and his brother head off to find some work to help their mother and younger sister. It’s a heart-tugging story that doesn’t entirely shy away from the difficulties of trans-culture adoption, explores the question of “what is home?” and manages the difficult task of “how do you make someone using Google Earth interesting to watch?” Once he grew up, he used Google Earth to find out where he was from. This is the story of Saroo Brierley, an Australian who, when he was a five year old in India, got separated from his family and after many twists and turns was adopted by a family in Australia. upcomingregionalsection.cms?parentid=61017241&genere=*:* /upcomingregionalsection.Once upon a time, a little boy fell asleep on a train and woke up thousands of miles from home.
