New England Review seeks creative or critical-creative writing, in any prose format or genre, with the text closely connected to an image or a scene from Agnès Varda’s 2000 film The Gleaners & I. (Original artwork will also be considered: Please limit artwork to black and white images for submission to the print journal.) The text should contain a description of the selected image or scene from the film, and can be any length from 30 to 3,000 words. Fitting responses might include, but are not limited to: meditations on memorable viewings where you watched or rewatched the film in a particular location or with a particular audience; a love letter (to the filmmaker, the subjects, or others) inspired by rewatching the movie; an imaginary deleted scene or alternate ending; an autobiographical sketch based on a memory that emerged during a screening; travel writing related to the film; an ekphrastic short story or prose poem that is clearly connected to the film; a personal essay that incorporates film criticism in the frame; comic book panels, imagined storyboards, or a graphic novel format that takes in cinematic images; a drawing that embellishes on an image from the film. Submissions open through June 15, 2026. This special feature will be edited by NER contributing editor J. M. Tyree.
