DESCRIPTION

Montréal. Cobblestone streets, centuries-old architecture, iconic markets. A little slice of Europe in North America. You’ve seen the movie. The sequel’s better.

LOST iN takes you off script in a city where storytellers paint the skyline, bars hide skate bowls and subzero temperatures only turn up the heat. You’ll uncover rooftop parties, roving raves, towering plant sculptures, decades-old drum circles, a Sex Pistols–inspired restaurant, a Shinjuku-style speakeasy and a literal underground art scene. This is the city beneath the city, and we’re not talking about le RÉSO.

Along the way, meet the people making it happen: the adventure guide who pioneered St. Lawrence River surfing; the chef cooking up river-eel carbonara; the concert promoter holding the line for indie music; the street artist creating portals to other worlds; and the guitarist from Canada’s first all-female death-metal band who traded riffs for gothic pet portraiture.

Eat weird, drink late and dance outside. That’s the Montréal that exists beyond the Old World veneer. Get lost in the Montréal where the New World is taking over.

"In Montréal spring is like an autopsy. Everyone wants to see the inside of the frozen mammoth. Girls rip off their sleeves and the flesh is sweet and white, like wood under green bark. From the streets a sexual manifesto rises like an inflating tire, ’The winter has not killed us again!’"
