After getting lost far from home as a young child, a boy survives hardship before being adopted by an Australian couple. Decades later, now living a comfortable adult life, he uses memories and modern technology to search for the family and place he left behind.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this heartfelt, true-story drama if you appreciate emotional family journeys like The Pursuit of Happyness or Philomena; Not for you if you prefer restrained emotion or faster pacing.
