The french film icon, agnès varda, forges an unexpected collaboration with photographer jr as they embark on a road trip like no other, in this cannes award winning film. The two artists share a passion for images and how they’re created, displayed and shared varda through cinema, jr through his emotionally arresting outdoor installations. Inspired by this connection, they set out in jr’s photo booth enhanced truck, exploring the villages and small towns of rural france and meeting its humble residents – all the while creating large scale portraits plastered across unconventional locations. What follows is a heart warming insight into unnamed communities, documented here in varda’s typically playful and tender manner. A cannes film festival award winner and academy award nominee, faces places is a deeply charming and life affirming look at not only the subtle power of community, but the inspiration that comes from the most cross generational of friendships.
