Prayer For A Lost Mitten takes us to snowy Montreal, where transit riders file into the metro system’s lost and found centre to rummage for lost hand-knit tuques and missing house keys, or inquire after photos of departed loved ones tucked into missing bus pass sleeves.

The night is falling and Montreal is under the snow. People line up at the lost and found office of the city’s transit company. They all have lost something, which, upon reflection, becomes the symbol of a deeper loss. Filmed in black-and-white with a jazz soundtrack, PRAYER FOR A LOST MITTEN is a creative documentary, which is both melancholic and festive, yet ever compassionate. A film that helps us get through the winter. Winner of the Jury Award for Best Canadian Feature Documentary at HotDocs 2020.
