Instructors: Cheryl Kinsman, Sheri Reda, and Irv Siegel
This Oscar-nominated film follows the journey of a young boy who is accidentally separated from his family in India and carried away to a land far from home where he is adopted by a new family. We watch as this young boy grows and learns new customs while never forgetting his family of origin and his roots in India. It is fascinating to see how he proceeds to re-connect with his birth mother and siblings, utilizing modern technology. This story is both endearing and remarkable in its scope. It shows one person’s search for his true self and reveals the human spirit, which thrives in all of us. The film stars Dev Patel, Rooney Mara, and Nicole Kidman and is directed by Garth Davis.
