Prayer for a Lost Mitten

Prayer for a Lost Mitten

Night has fallen and Montreal is under a blanket of snow. At the City Transit Company, people line up at the lost and found office where upon reflection, losing something becomes a symbol of a deeper loss. This creative documentary is sometimes melancholic, sometimes festive yet always compassionate. In fact, it makes you appreciate Winter.

- Dir. Jean-François Lesage - 79min - 2019 - Canada -

"enchanting...luxuriates in the profundity of unexpected encounters between strangers and the delicate cycle of things lost and regained." - The Guardian

"Shot in dreamy black and white...leaves viewers with an incentive to appreciate the things they still have." - ScreenDaily

"The film’s gorgeous black and white cinematography captures the Montreal cityscape beautifully as the snow contrasts vividly with the night sky." - POV Magazine

"affectionate, melancholic and joyous" - Visions du Reel
