The Gleaners and I
Les glaneurs et la glaneuse
Tuesday, September 14 at 7pm
FIAF, Florence Gould Hall
Directed by Agnès Varda, 2000. Color. 82 min.
With Agnès Varda, Bodan Litnanski.
In French with English subtitles.
In this stirring cross between documentary and personal
reflection, legendary filmmaker Agnès Varda explores
the hidden value of discarded foodstuffs as a metaphor for
making art and savoring life: gleaners who pick knobby
potatoes left behind by farmers, chefs that forage—rather
than buy—herbs, and dumpster divers who seek fruits
and bread loaves amongst Paris trash.
A Q&A will follow
the film with Madeline Nelson, Moderator of NYC Freegan Meetup,
reflecting on her personal and political experiences with
gleaning and foraging in New York City.
