Join SLAM for The Gleaners and I (2000), presented as part of Cinema St. Louis’s 35th-annual St. Louis International Film Festival (SLIFF).

An 1867 painting, The Gleaners, by Jean-François Millet inspired septuagenarian documentarian Agnès Varda to cross the French countryside to document people who scavenge. Taking everything including surplus in the fields, rubbish in trashcans, and oysters washed up after a storm, the gleaners range from those sadly in need to those hoping to re-create the community activity of centuries past to still others who use whatever they find to cobble together a rough art. The film is highlighted by Varda’s amusing narration.

The film is not rated. The run time is approximately 1 hour, 22 minutes.

Community event in Maryland Heights, St. Louis County, MO 63043.
