Tel: 01706 260785
2000, Directed by Agnès Varda.
1h 12m, France, English subtitles.
The Gleaners and I is a documentary film that features various kinds of gleaning. It was entered into competition at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival, and later went on to win awards around the world.
Varda's rumination on this art of "living off the leftovers of others" finds inspiration in both past and present, rural and urban, the political and the highly personal. Camera in hand, Varda interviews those for whom gleaning is a way of life, or an encompassing philosophy.
