A five year-old Indian boy gets lost on the streets of Calcutta, thousands of kilometres from home.  He survives many challenges before being adopted by a couple in Tasmania.  25 years later, he sets out to find his lost family.

Directed by Garth Davis, and adapted from the book ‘A Long Way Home’ by Tasmanian Saroo Brierley, Lion was nominated for 6 Oscars and winner of the 2017 BAFTA Film Award.

Silver Screen is a free monthly screening programme of iconic and important Australian films.  It’s a great opportunity for audiences to access Australian film, meet other film lovers and hear from the actors, directors and producers at a post film Q&A. The films screen monthly in the comfortable theatre at Wide Angle, with plenty of opportunity for refreshments. This programme is possible through support from the Hobart City Council.
