An 1867 painting by Jean-Francois Millet inspired septuagenarian documentarian Agnes Varda to cross the French countryside to videotape people who scavenge.

Highlighted by Varda's amusing narration.

I'm probably not watching much this time. (99 movies items)

"01/22/18 Directed by: Agnes Varda Varda can always make a not terribly interesting topic really engaging with her presentation and this is no exception. Though the camera quality was really jarring at first I liked it a good deal. "
