Memoir of a Snail reveals new teaser trailer


Memoir of a Snail is a bittersweet story about dealing with grief and finding a way forward. During the 2024 Annecy Animation Film Festival, IFC Films gave a first look at this upcoming project, which promises to be quite a heartbreaking one.

Sarah Snook stars alongside an all-Australian cast in Memoir of a Snail. The trailer shows twin siblings, Grace (played by Sarah Snook) and Gilbert Pudel (played by Kodi Smit-McPhee), enjoying time with their father. This happy moment precedes a heartbreaking trauma. Grace's journey is filled with sad but important memories that shape her life. She is supported by loving friends and family, including her favorite animal, snails. 

The official plot synopsis for Memoir of a Snail read:

"Grace Pudel is a lonely misfit with an affinity for collecting ornamental snails and an intense love for books. At a young age, when Grace is separated from her fire-breathing twin brother Gilbert, she falls into a spiral of anxiety and angst. Despite a continued series of hardships, inspiration and hope emerge when she strikes up an enduring friendship with an elderly eccentric woman named Pinky, who is full of grit and lust for life."
