Memoir of a Snail

Claymation for adults from the director of "Mary and Max." The life of reclusive Grace changes after she begins a friendship with the elderly and eccentric Pinky.

This is the first work in 15 years from Oscar-winning animator Adam Elliot, a claymation tragicomedy with excellent reviews and an adult rating.

The animated film takes on the role of a therapeutic piece, alleviating emotional turmoil. By immersing viewers in the life story of the protagonist, Elliot gradually leads the audience to the key idea: it is impossible to escape the heaviness of existence, but we are capable of creating our own cozy worlds filled with events, things, and people worth living for.

Nominations for the Golden Globe and the Oscar for Best Animated Feature.
