General Admission
Oscar-winner Adam Elliot, one of Australia’s greatest filmmaking treasures, returns with an outstanding second feature.
Memoir of a Snail concerns Grace Pudel (voiced by Sarah Snook), a reclusive woman who has been let down in life. Hiding away from the world, Grace tries to content herself with romance novels, hoarding of ornamental snails, and guinea pigs. With Grace in Canberra and her beloved long-lost twin brother in Perth, life seems as constrained and slow as that of her beloved snails.
But life always throws up surprises, and just as things have slowed to a crawl, extraordinary octogenarian Pinky (Jacki Weaver) enters, stage left... Following Elliot’s other incredible hand-crafted tales of thwarted love Mary and Max (2009), Harvie Krumpet (2003) and Ernie Biscuit (2015) Memoir of a Snail tugs at the heartstrings with its great swell of devotion, craft and joy.
