Date & Time
HIFF & GH present NOW SHOWING: a screening of FACES PLACES, directed by Agnes Varda and JR. 89-year-old Agnes Varda, one of the leading figures of the French New Wave, and acclaimed 33-year-old French photographer and muralist JR teamed up to make this enchanting documentary/road movie. Kindred spirits, Varda and JR share a lifelong passion for images and how they are created, displayed, and shared. Together they travel around the villages of France in JR’s photo truck meeting locals, learning their stories, and producing epic-size portraits of them. The photos are prominently displayed on houses, barns, storefronts, and trains, revealing the humanity in their subjects and the viewers. FACES PLACES documents these heartwarming encounters, as well as the unlikely, tender friendship the pair formed along the way. Tickets $15 / $12 General Admission for Guild Hall and HIFF Members.
