MEMOIR OF A SNAIL

In a universe that hovers somewhere between Tim Burton, WALLACE & GROMIT and dark gothic flair, the moving story of Grace unfolds - an outsider who shares her life with her faithful companion snail Sylvia. With great sensitivity, pitch-black humor and impressive stop-motion animation, this film takes us on a journey full of misfortunes. But neither a brutal religious sect nor a perverse fiend can stop Grace's search for love and belonging. This is not just modeling clay, but also big emotions - and they creep inexorably under even the thickest snail skin. After MARY & MAX, Oscar winner Adam Elliot is finally back, creating a lovingly staged world full of quirky characters, melancholy nuances and unforgettable moments.
