The Gleaners and I
2000 · 82 MIN · IMDB 7.7 · 9,357 VOTES · DIR. Agnès Varda
Overview
Varda focuses her eye on gleaners: those who scour already-reaped fields for the odd potato or turnip. Her investigation leads from forgotten corners of the French countryside to off-hours at the green markets of Paris, following those who insist on finding a use for that which society has cast off, whether out of necessity or activism.
