Highly Recommended
France
Feature Documentary
Original Title: Les glaneurs et la glaneuse
Writer/Director/Narrator: Agnès Varda
Cinematographers: Didier Doussin, Stéphane Krausz, Didier Rouget, Pascal Sautelet, Agnès Varda
Composers: Joanna Bruzdowicz, Isabelle Olivier
Varda’s eye-opening and thoughtful yet (pleasingly) whimsical and personal documentary examines the hidden world of modern day gleaning, taking in both the traditional post-harvest rural kind and the newer phenomenon of urban gleaning, meeting numerous interesting people along the way – both the ethically minded anti-consumerists and those who are merely down on their luck. Iain.Stott
Followed by Two Years Later (2002).
