Arguably the best road movie of 2017, Faces Places utilizes humor, humility and quite literally, faces, to create a lasting film. The French duo of Agnès Varda — an 89-year-old woman — and JR — a professional photographer — travel throughout France with one simple goal in mind — meet new faces, and take their photo. Celebrating both art and life, the photos are blown up to astronomical proportions and adorned to buildings and other objects for the citizens to see. Faces Places is simple in its concept, but the execution and heartwarming connection between the pair make this film a must-watch.
