PLOT DESCRIPTION
Gianni (Andreino Carli) is the Italian prisoner of war who returns after spending time in a Russian prison camp. Due to the economic disaster that followed the war, he becomes a scavenger to survive. He soon meets Old Du (Antonio Lundari), the legendary veteran scavenger who has survived two world wars and numerous hardships. Old Du teaches him the fine art of scavenging and the two combine forces to sell their goods in a nearby town. Gianni returns to civilization, and an incredulous Old Du scolds him for abandoning the scavenging lifestyle before he returns to his mountain solitude, happy to be away from society in this symbolic drama. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide
Y la IMDb, aunque no dé mucha información:I recuperanti/The Scavengers (1969; August 9 at 6 p.m.) and Durante l’estate/During the Summer (1971; August 3 at 2:15 p.m.) are relatively straightforward but fresh and unpredictable expositions of some of Olmi’s key themes. The first, evoking Il tempo si è fermato, pairs an old man and a young man who try to make a living by salvaging bombs and other war materials buried in the Brescian hills. In the second, a former high-school professor with a passion for heraldry convinces various strangers that they have noble blood. ~CHRIS FUJIWARA
