In the past few months Dustin O’Halloran has been working on the score for Garth Davis’ new film Lion together with Hauschka.

Lion, starring Rooney Mara, Nicole Kidman and Dev Patel, is based on the true story of Saroo Brierley, who used Google Maps to track down the family he left in India when he was adopted by an Australian couple at age five. The film will be out in theaters in November of this year.
