AroView: Riveting true story of a boy who becomes separated from his Indian family at the age of 5, and is adopted by Australian parents. As an adult, he pieces together clues to find his birth parents and miraculously reconciles with them.
This superbly directed drama explores the human search for belonging in the 21st Century - a search blending internet technology, hope, blind luck and the subtleties of memory to make this Dickensian fairy-tale feel believable. Adapted from the memoir ‘A Long Way Home’ by Saroo Brierly.
“An excellent example of its type—a resonant true story told, not with manipulative cliches, but with refreshing confidence.” ~THE ATLANTIC
