This one was a solid film. It is based upon a true story of a little boy in a small mostly rural village in India who goes with his brother and gets split up at the train station. In the process he falls asleep on a train and is transported to Bengal where he doesn't speak the language and is too young to know this mother as anything but Mama.
Fast forward and he is adopted by an Australian couple and they are now twenty years forward. The older boy is now an adult who has grown up with the Australian family but he ends up obsessing about finding his mother and brother. The film focuses heavily on that process.
It is an interesting story. The acting was pretty solid and the use of location was a big part of the atmosphere.
Yes, I'd recommend this one. You'll have to watch it to see how things turn out.
