Two years after Les glaneurs e la glaneuse and the effect the film had, the letters she was sent and the reactions and counter- reactions, Agnès Varda returns to examine the personalities met and the places seen and portrayed in her first film to find out what has changed in their lives and what has happened.The result takes the form of a voyage, another journey, as though random physical movement prompted by the feeling of the day, suggested by something said or thought, were the stuff of the film itself. A new contemplation of what remains or is abandoned but which finds renewed usage and a new lease of life. An even more personal and moving voyage on which Varda encounters new glaneurs and takes further her idea of glanage as a primary condition for film-making.
