The 360-degree video – viewed almost 4 million times since it was posted on Facebook Friday – is the work of Félix & Paul Studios, a pioneering Montreal company that’s turning heads in Hollywood.

“It’s such an historic place, sometimes you feel like you’re walking into a museum where so much history has been made,” Lajeunesse told the Montreal Gazette on Wednesday. “But it’s also a working environment, a lot of important things are happening there every day. And it’s also a house where people live.”
