Plot

Agnès Varda's documentary, "The Gleaners and I," follows her journey as she discovers and connects with modern-day gleaners—people who scavenge leftover crops or discarded items. Through her own "gleaning" of images and encounters, Varda explores themes of waste, resourcefulness, aging, and the hidden beauty in what society often overlooks. The film is a personal and philosophical reflection on finding value in the cast-offs of the world.
