Academy Award-winning independent animator and visual artist Adam Elliot is here to talk new "clayography" Memoir of a Snail. Featuring the voices of Sarah Snook and Kodi Smit-McPhee, Memoir of a Snail is the bittersweet remembrance of a lonely woman named Grace Pudel, who recounts her life story to a humble garden snail. In our chat, Elliot shares how audiences are reacting to his film and its themes; his “backwards” writing process; why he wants to make us all cry; and why Sarah Snook and Kodi Smit-McPhee came to mind for his tormented characters.
