Faces Places
Agnès Varda, JR · 2017
Faces Places is a 2017 French documentary in which filmmaker Agnès Varda and artist JR travel rural France photographing local residents and pasting their enlarged portraits onto buildings and structures. The film documents their collaboration, their conversations, and the quiet impact of making people visible on their own terms — all while Varda confronts her failing eyesight and JR maintains his enigmatic presence behind dark glasses.
