Vancouver and Toronto audiences have first crack at a fascinating new documentary by actor-turned-director Adrian Grenier, best known for his role in Entourage.

His new film Teenage Paparazzo - which features Matt Damon, Paris Hilton, Alec Baldwin and Whoopi Goldberg - tells the story of Austin Visschedyk, a 14-year-old who morphed into an actual, working paparazzo, though how he manages to keep up with the big boys is anyone's guess. Speed on his feet maybe.

Apparently, Grenier met the kiddo with the killer lens during a night on the town and decided to start filming him in order to document his ultra-competitive, topsy-turvy world. As mentioned, the film opens today Toronto and Vancouver; the trailer is pending but a tantalizing clip is below.

Also below an interview with Grenier on New Zealand TV about the film. It’s longish (6-plus minutes) but well worth watching if you're keen to learn more about the film.
