Les glaneurs et la glaneuse (2000)
A documentary about the many ways people use found objects.

I work for a homeless services agency as the food services manager. I have found that there is a large amount of gleaning in our communities. This movie affirmed my inclusion of gleaned food in our program. The food that I receive from gleaners tend to be more nutritious than much of the food that is readily available to low income individuals and families. I hope many see this film and understand that the elements in this movie are much larger than the french culture. I feel that I know of the American equivalent of many of the people featured in this documentary. It's interesting how many do this to survive and how many do it as a personal, political and ethical choice. I am very thankful that this movie was made. Enjoy.
