Faces Places
88-year-old French New Wave veteran Agnès Varda teams up with 33-year-old French photographer JR to create a travelogue/road movie. Sharing a passion for images and the means by which they are created, displayed and shared, the duo hits the road to travel through France's small villages, meeting locals, learning their stories and producing epic-size portraits of them.
