Memoir of a Snail

Grace, an orphaned twin, hoards snails. In spite of a ridiculously hard life she maintains a sunny disposition. Adam Elliot, the Australian master of stop-motion “claymation” has taken eight years to tell Grace’s wacky story in an exquisitely handcrafted style that won Memoir the top prize at Annecy, the world’s leading animation festival. Screen Daily praised its heart and wrenching gallows humor. Recommended for children over fourteen, and any adult who wants to experience something truly different.
