Will Amina and Kwane find a way to overcome the harsh realities of their environment? Can Pema and Tenzin conquer the highest frozen passes on Earth?

After a harrowing journey on a Kolkata-bound goods train, an abandoned baby finds a loving family in distant Australia.

In war-torn Gaza, how do children paint their dreams of a happy childhood amidst dead bodies in makeshift tents? What drives desperate parents in Afghanistan to sell their own children?
Through the lens of these extraordinary children, Lost Homes transcends borders and cultures to reveal the untold stories of abandoned children from the far corners of our world. Prepare to be moved, inspired, and forever changed by the profound tales of love, loss, and the unwavering strength found in the hearts of the world's most remarkable children.
