Memoir of a Snail with Adam Elliot | Picturehouse

Felicity Beckett talks to filmmaker Adam Elliot about his new film, the Academy Award-nominated Memoir of a Snail.

Grace Pudel is a lonely misfit with an affinity for collecting ornamental snails and an intense love for books.

At a young age, when Grace is separated from her fire-breathing twin brother Gilbert, she falls into a spiral of anxiety and angst.

Despite a continued series of hardships, inspiration and hope emerge when she strikes up an enduring friendship with an elderly eccentric woman named Pinky, who is full of grit and lust for life.

From Academy Award® winning animation writer and director Adam Elliot, MEMOIR OF A SNAIL is a poignant, heartfelt and hilarious chronicle of the life of an outsider finding her confidence and silver linings amongst the clutter of everyday life.
