• 23/11/23: Les glaneurs et la glaneuse (2000) - Agnès Varda. Register

An 1867 painting by Jean-Francois Millet served as the spark of inspiration for the revered cinematic virtuoso Agnes Varda. This illustrious film auteur embarked on a journey across the picturesque French countryside, armed with a video camera, to document the lives of those who find their livelihood in the remnants of our material world.

All movies are screened in their original language and will be subtitled in English.
