Prayer for a Lost Mitten - Jean-François Lesage

Synopsis

Passionate about living heritage and navigation on the St. Lawrence, Kevin Gagné and Raymond Lachance build the most beautiful dream machine of all: a gleaming ice canoe. Inspired by the importance of passing on a rich culture and endangered know-how, their boatyard ignites the spark of rediscovered knowledge and memory from one generation to the next. The better to pass on to their children, grandchildren and an entire community.
