The Gleaners And I

February 1 @ 3:00 pm

Agnes Varda’s acclaimed 2000 documentary follows the French filmmaker as she explores the world of ‘gleaning’. Historically, gleaning meant collecting leftover crops after a harvest. Here, however, Varda offers a more wide-ranging and modern take, exploring how the practice has evolved and expanded in both rural and urban environments. Varda takes a close look at the people who engage in picking up leftover items, and she also wonders if her own filmmaking is a version of gleaning itself. The Gleaners and I is a playful, insightful and compassionate modern classic.
