Memoir of a Snail
AroView: Another sublime stop-motion animated feature from Adam Elliot (Mary & Max) rendered in poignant, hilarious and staggering technical detail.
Despite the title, it is neither slow or remotely childish, or even about a snail, but instead a chronicle of a young woman (voiced by Succession’s Sarah Snook) desperate to connect with more than just her pet snails and artefacts.
“As hilarious as it is heart-wrenching – frequently within the same scene.” ~Wendy Ide, Screen Daily
“It’s a gorgeous film, but it’s also an emotionally intelligent movie, one that shifts and flows between comedy and tragedy, reminding us that life can only be lived forwards.” ~Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
