Memoir of a Snail – Official Teaser
The U.S. release date for The Memoir of a Snail has been set for the award-winning animated film written, produced and directed by Academy Award winner Adam Elliot (Mary and Max).
The film, which is said to have taken nearly a decade to make, centers on lonely Grace Puddle (voiced by Succession actress Sarah Snook) and her fascination with ornamental snails and romance novels, as well as her unlikely friendship with an eccentric older woman named Pinky.
IFC Films has announced that the adult animated drama will come to the United States for a limited release on October 25 through November. The film will serve as Elliot's second stop-motion feature, following 2009's Mary and Max and the Oscar-winning 2004 short film Harvey Krumpet.
