def get_version(self, filename=None, version=-1, session=None, **kwargs):
        """Get a file from GridFS by ``"filename"`` or metadata fields.

        Returns a version of the file in GridFS whose filename matches
        `filename` and whose metadata fields match the supplied keyword
        arguments, as an instance of :class:`~gridfs.grid_file.GridOut`.

        Version numbering is a convenience atop the GridFS API provided
        by MongoDB. If more than one file matches the query (either by
        `filename` alone, by metadata fields, or by a combination of
        both), then version ``-1`` will be the most recently uploaded
        matching file, ``-2`` the second most recently
        uploaded, etc. Version ``0`` will be the first version
        uploaded, ``1`` the second version, etc. So if three versions
        have been uploaded, then version ``0`` is the same as version
        ``-3``, version ``1`` is the same as version ``-2``, and
        version ``2`` is the same as version ``-1``.

        Raises :class:`~gridfs.errors.NoFile` if no such version of
        that file exists.

          - `version` (optional): version of the file to get (defaults

          - `session` (optional): a

          - `**kwargs` (optional): find files by custom metadata.
