C'est fantastique!

Agnès exposes what good dumpster divers have known for some time; the amount of waste in Western society is astounding. Her French subjects, ranging from Gypsies to street kids to volunteer teachers to gourmet chefs, realize the untapped bounty in leftover produce, from both the field and the market.

We would all do well to take a lesson from Ms. Varda's subjects. If you're averse to gleaning or dumpstering, you should at least pay attention to efficiently using and re-using what you have.
