  • Let's, uh, start with where you're from.

  • Calcutta.

  • Which part?

  • I'm adopted. I'm not really...Indian.

  • I'm starting to remember.

  • Saroo...

  • Our beautiful boy.

  • We're very proud of you, son.

  • A life I'd forgotten...

  • Saroo!

  • You okay?

  • I had another family.

  • A mother.

  • A brother.

  • I can still see their faces.

  • What happened?

  • I have to find my way back home.

  • How long were you on the train?

  • Couple of days.

  • Couple of days?

  • It will take a lifetime to search all the stations in India.

  • Do you have any idea what it's like?

  • How, everyday, my real brother screams my name?

  • I always thought that I could keep this family together.

  • I need you, Saroo.

  • What if you do find home and they're not even there?

  • And you just keep searching?

  • I don't have a choice.

  • What was she like?

  • Beautiful.

  • Every night I imagine that I'm walking those streets home...

  • ...and I know every single step of the way....

  • ..and I whisper in her ear...

  • "I'm here."

Let's, uh, start with where you're from.
