Flicks in the Sticks is organising a special Indian night for the showing of the film Lion.

The film will be shown on Tuesday, January 9th, at 7.30pm in St Mary’s Church Hall.

There will be an Indian supper served at 7pm and the film will start at 7.30pm. The cost for supper and the film is £10. For just the film the tickets are £4.50.

Lion is the emotive story of a five year old boy called Saroo, who gets lost on a train, taking him thousands of miles across India, away from home and family.

Saroo must learn to survive alone in Kolkata, before ultimately being adopted by an Australian couple. Twenty-five years later, armed with only a handful of memories, his unwavering determination, and a revolutionary technology known as Google Earth, he sets out to find his lost family and finally return to his first home.
