The Gleaners & I
Why this pick
Varda’s intimate, playful essay-film eye turns chance encounters and overlooked lives into a warm, curious human mosaic, much like the gentle road-trip spirit of Faces Places.

Cameraperson
Why this pick
A deeply personal documentary assembled from a cinematographer’s encounters, balancing global observation with tactile, compassionate attention to faces, work, memory, and the ethics of looking.
03
Not Reconciled
Why this pick
Its formal severity is far less breezy than Faces Places, but its collaboration with ordinary landscapes and histories shares Varda and JR’s interest in how places retain political memory.
04
The Beaches of Agnès
Why this pick
Varda revisits her own life through installations, photographs, friends, and seaside spaces with the same mischievous self-awareness and affectionate curiosity that animate Faces Places.
05
Exit Through the Gift Shop
Why this pick
Street art, anonymous makers, and the unstable boundary between image-making and self-mythology give this a more irreverent edge, while retaining Faces Places’ fascination with public art.
