Director Agnès Varda and photographer and muralist JR journey through rural France and form an unlikely friendship.
Faces Places was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature at the 90th Academy Awards.
Critical reception Faces Places received widespread acclaim from critics.[7] Amy Taubin of Film Comment called the film an “unassuming masterpiece”, describing it as “both personal and populist, a celebration of artisanal production (including cinema), worker solidarity, and the photographic arts in the face of mortality.”[8]
On Rotten Tomatoes site’s critical consensus reads, “Equal parts breezily charming and poignantly powerful, Faces Places is a unique cross-generational portrait of life in rural France from the great Agnès Varda.”
