A group of 60 Rotarians, partners and friends were privileged to see an exclusive viewing last Tuesday of the new Australian movie, Lion, at the Sun Theatre in Yarraville.
 
The film was a true and heart-warming story of Saroo Brierly and it received glowing praise from most of the audience. For some, a few scenes tested the tear ducts but nothing that a few tissues didn't fix. The story makes one realise how lucky Saroo was to be adopted when there are thousands of children in India who are homeless and subject to exploitation.
 
After the movie, we enjoyed some fellowship and fine food at the local pub. A pleasant evening all round.
 
Special thanks to movie mogul Geoff Smith who initiated and organised the night.
