JR: Women are Heroes

I was first introduced to the work of street artist, JR back in 2008 and I instantly became a fan. Its also around that time that I heard about his collaborative film project with Médecins Sans Frontières entilted, 'Women are Heroes'.

Using his 28 millimeter lens, JR set out to document the lives of incredibly courageous women from the world. The film recently debuted at Cannes Film Festival and not surprisingly, the work is absolutely breathtaking.
