“There’s an ingenuousness and innocence to Memoir of a Snail, a family-entertainment approachability that belies a strange intensity.” —Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
Grace Pudel (voiced by Sarah Snook) is a book-loving, snail-collecting misfit that falls into a series of misfortunes after being separated from her twin brother Gilbert (Kodi Smit-McPhee) in this stop-motion animated film. Despite her hardships, inspiration and hope arise when Grace begins a friendship with an eccentric elderly woman named Pinky (Jacki Weaver). From Academy Award-winning writer and director Adam Elliot, Memoir of a Snail is a heartfelt and hilarious chronicle of the life of an outsider finding her confidence and silver linings amongst the clutter of everyday life.
