Conversations with My Gardener (French: Dialogue avec mon jardinier) is a 2007 French film directed by Jean Becker.
Plot
A painter returns from Paris to his childhood home in rural France. The painter notices that the house's once-impressive vegetable garden has fallen into neglect, and he advertises for a gardener to put it back into shape. The gardener who responds is a former schoolmate who he hasn't seen for decades. Through his unfussy working class way of life, her allows the painter discovers the bucolic side of life and its beauty. Over the next several months, the two different men become friends through long and often witty conversations. Together they experience the world in a new light, in a slow, gentle and ultimately very moving unfolding of a relationship. The gardener's occasional stomach cramps are identified as cancer and soon he passes away. The painter takes the insights his friend has given him and shares them through an art exhibition.
