Des insectes et des hommes is a fascinating dive into the unexpected intersection of pest control and insect appreciation. Harold Leavey, the film's central figure, embodies this duality as he navigates the often grim realities faced by Montreal residents plagued by critters. The pacing feels contemplative, allowing viewers to absorb both the distress of the tenants and Leavey's unique perspective on his 'clients'—the insects themselves. The atmosphere is tinged with a peculiar warmth; it's not just an exterminator's tale but a reflection on our complicated relationship with nature. The cinematography captures the delicate beauty of insects, contrasting sharply with the chaotic human environments. It's this blend of themes—struggle, curiosity, and coexistence—that sets the film apart, making it a noteworthy watch for documentary enthusiasts.
