Agnes Varda's semidocumentary about the rue Daguerre in Paris, where the New Wave filmmaker lived for years. "A playful and affectionate portrait of a thoroughly Parisian neighborhood, and an homage of sorts to the pioneering photographer who was the street's namesake...The editing is whimsical, pointed, and punning" (Juliet Clark, BAM/PFA).

GLEANERS AND I- VARDA

Our Price: $29.99

Agnes Varda's engaging, personal documentary looks at all levels of gleaning, or scavenging, in various parts of France. Varda visits with those who pick from already harvested fields in order to survive, as well as those who do it simply as a pastime or because they are offended by the waste. She also looks at those who use discarded materials in their artwork, urban gleaners who find nutritious foods in garbage cans, and others. As the director salutes this individualistic and idealistic activity, she contemplates how her own art form is really an act of gleaning images and putting found objects to use. Named Best Documentary by the National Society of Film Critics, the New York Film Critics Circle, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, and the Chicago International Film Festival. Shot on digital video. In French with English Agnes Varda---France---2000---82 mins.

A beautiful, elegant, romantic film that explores the issue of a man who is trying to love two women. Jean-Claude Drouot plays a happily married carpenter who wants his wife to accept that he can love his mistress at the same time. Controversial because of its exploration of morality and because Drouot's real-life family play his wife and children. Agnes Varda's daring is to explore the nature of relationship from a woman's point of view. French with Agnes Varda---France---1965---87 mins.

Varda repeats the process with Les Glaneurs et la Glaneuse... Deux ans Apres (2002, 63 mins.). The documentary revisits many of the same subjects and features more of Varda's quirky, enchanting perspective on scavenging. Agnes Varda---France---2000, 2002---146 mins.
