FACES, PLACES

With Faces, Places, 89-year-old powerhouse Agnès Varda teams with world-famous young street artist JR to make a film as wide-ranging as it is personal, as fanciful as it is pointed. Setting off on French country roads to find subjects for JR’s mural-size portrait photographs, the two artists focus on people generally outside of the spotlight: retired miners, factors workers, wives of dockers, and farmers. Each encounter fills in another piece in an portrait of modern-day France, as well as the evolving relationship between open-hearted Agnès Varda and mysterious JR. Nominated for an Academy Award for the Best Documentary of 2017.
