Let's Go Hawks!
It's a true story about Saroo Brierly, a 5 year old Indian boy who falls asleep on a train, ends up in Calcutta, eventually gets adopted by an Australian couple and 25 years later starts to search for his birth mother in India using google earth.
Really great movie; would recommend. Won't give too much away but would say it falls into the category of 'feel good'.
The story itself is really amazing - if you don't have any interest in seeing the movie or are interested in seeing it and are fine knowing the entire story in advance, Vanity Fair wrote a detailed account a few years ago: A Home at the End of Google Earth
Saroo also wrote an autobiographical book, A Long Way Home, that I haven't read but think I will.
