Shantaram
Escaping from a maximum security prison in Australia, Lin begins a journey that leads him to Mumbai. As he sets down on Indian soil he begins a leg of his outlaw life in a city that captivates him immediately, and holds him hostage to a fate he struggles to understand. Starting out an anonymous new life, walking among ordinary citizens and underworld criminals alike, Lin’s fate takes him through the rich kaleidoscope of life in Mumbai. What unfolds in Shantaram is the story of a man’s redemption, found in the most unlikely of place, and one he never imagined, upon a riverbank in a rural Indian village.
