:04:01
But there's a famous one
:04:04
painted byJules Breton
at the museum in Arras.

:04:09
We took the road north.
:04:11
Lots of big trucks,
but I'll come back to that,

:04:15
and we arrived in the town of Arras,
:04:18
we saw its square,
:04:19
we saw its museum,
:04:21
and Breton's Woman Gleaning.
:04:24
There is another woman gleaning
in this film, that's me.

:04:35
I'm happy to drop the ears of wheat
and pick up my camera.

:04:40
These new small cameras,
:04:42
they are digital, fantastic.
:04:44
Their effects are stroboscopic
:04:47
narcissistic,
:04:49
and even hyper-realistic.
:05:34
No, it's not O rage,
:05:37
no, it's not O despair,
:05:39
it's not Old age, my enemy,
:05:41
it might even be Old age, my friend
but still, my hair

:05:46
and my hands keep telling me
that the end is near.

:05:53
OK, right now,
we are driving towards Beauce,

:05:56
renowned for its wheat.
The harvest being over

:05:59
we'll focus on potato
gleaning instead.
