A powerful exploration of one of Canada's most famous cold cases, Where is Lisa Marie Young? commemorates the life of a woman vanished, calls for action for MMIWG2S, and holds up the torch of hope to bring Lisa home.On June 30, 2002, Lisa Marie Young-vibrant with life, full of plans for her promising future, merely twenty-one years old-went missing from a birthday party in her hometown of Nanaimo, British Columbia. She was last seen climbing into a red Jaguar with a virtual stranger, headed into the city to get some food.No trace of her has been found since.Lisa's family tried everything-they plastered the town with posters, conducted major searches run by Lisa's Indigenous Tla-o-qui-aht (Clayoquat) community, pushed the slow-moving RCMP, gave media interviews, offered rewards, and even did a Crime Stoppers reenactment and worked with psychics. Though the man with whom Lisa was last seen has been questioned by the police, there are still no answers and no body twenty-five years later.Drawing on stories and reflections from Lisa's closest family and friends, testimony from other victims of the only person of interest in Lisa's case, and interviews with RCMP officers active on her case both then and now, Where is Lisa Marie Young? is a deep dive into the night Lisa disappeared, a testament to the decades-long effort by her community to find her, and a beautiful lament for the full person Lisa was before the final twelve hours of her life. A grief song and a call to action, Where is Lisa Marie Young? invites you to join the search and demand justice for Lisa.
