The Gleaners and I Movie Review 2001

For more than six months, director Varda crisscrossed the French countryside with a hand-held digital camera and documented the lives of modern-day "gleaners." These scavangers harvest foodstuffs and trash that is thrown out for both necessities and to make into art. French with subtitles.
