JR - World Premier of Faces

film festival IDFA: World Premier of Faces

The documentary ‘Faces’ tells the fascinating story of French photographer and street artist JR who in March 2007 embarked on the biggest illegal photo exhibition ever. Together with his friend Marco, JR pasted enormous smiling portraits of Israeli and Palestinians who hold the same job on different sides of the wall.

From the first photo shoots to the eventual pasting in such hotbeds like Bethlehem, Tel Aviv, Hebron and Ramallah: the camera was there, capturing JR’s work, the pasting, but also the emotional and at times hilarious reactions of the people of Israel and Palestine. Tonight sees the world premier of the documentary Faces.

The movie will be screened at Tuschinski Theater in the presence of the director and JR.

Tickets for the screening can be bought via the IDFA site, starting November 16. /
