June and Robert Kara and Me
"C’est la vie. Ainsi soit-il."
Synopsis
"In the summer of 2019 Kara [Walker] and I took our second and final visit to see Robert Frank and June Leaf at their place in Mabou, Nova Scotia. This video is a record of some of the conversations between us. A blooming friendship between two mid-career artists and two late-career ones. I never meant to make this film but some time after Robert died I looked back and lined these moments up." — Ari Marcopoulos
