It resonates with the gleaners and evokes fond memories of childhood. Picking up leftovers in the paddy fields and on the road, and collecting them into a handful, is very full and rich in the world of children. Varda's documentary, though about scavengers, doesn't make people feel humbled....

"Art comes from life and is higher than life" It is wonderful to extend inspiration through a painting. Because at the moment of inspiration, the two arts blend together, and new social values ​​emerge. Moreover, in the film, what really blends is not just the two arts, but also a sense of...

This "The Gleaner" is really romantic and full of artistic sense! I have never understood why my family's farmland has a good harvest, but my grandparents still have to go to the fields to glean.

The documentary contains various elements of art, which serves as...

Connect with reality with a calm mind, escape into the platform of thinking with the axis of time, and release the attitude constructively rather than rudely. The film seems to be Agnès Varda exploring consumerism or social hierarchies with her sympathetic yet casually fun shots. In fact,...

So so good. I think Varda' artistry in this documentary is something that I admire a lot, where each encounter and documentation does not necessarily define the whole, but hints at this overarching sentiment of the gleaners' culture in various forms. No individual or event is being particularly...

The Gleaners combines the lyrical nature of prose, the dailyization and fragmentation of contemporary images, the reflexivity and cross-media nature of experimental images, and the social attributes of public art, demonstrating the optimistic humanist spirit of French New Wave directors.
