Grace and Gilbert have our whole hearts. And, in our humble opinion, @adam_elliot_clay hit a whole new level of awesome when he had the character models join him on the @savfilmfest red carpet! See Memoir of a Snail now in select theaters. Rated R for content. 🐌🐌🐌 In Adam Elliot’s Memoir of a Snail, the story focuses on Grace Pudel, a lonely misfit with an affinity for collecting ornamental snails and an intense love for books. As she talks with her new snail friend Sylvia, viewers learn Grace’s mother died in childbirth, leading to Grace and her twin brother Gilbert being raised by their father Percy, a former paraplegic juggler and alcoholic. Despite a life filled with love, tragedy still strikes when Percy dies in his sleep. Gilbert and Grace are then forcibly separated and sent to two different homes. Grace falls into a spiral of anxiety and angst until she strikes up an enduring friendship with an elderly eccentric woman named Pinky, who is full of grit and lust for life. “Memoir of A Snail has been an eight-year project and is part seven of my trilogy of trilogies,” shares Elliot. “I have always been fascinated by people’s collections and when does a collection become a hoard? My film is about a lonely hoarder of ornamental snails and the journey she takes to overcome her trauma and escape from her shell. I hope people can relate to Grace, empathize with her and share her moments of loss and joy.” #IFCFilms #MemoirofaSnail #Stopmotion #AdamElliot #SarahSnook #EricBana #KodiSmitMcPhee #JackiWeaver #awn #animation #animationworld #animationworldnetwork

When SCAD alum Sabrina Spanta (B.F.A., fashion, 2016) requested my aid in an impassioned letter describing the extraordinary story and desperate circumstance of her two sisters—then facing a fearful future in their homeland—I knew SCAD needed to help. Directed by SCAD alum Leslie Merlin (B.F.A., video/film, 2005), produced by SCAD and showcased at @savfilmfest, “One Step Away” documents the family’s harrowing journey to freedom. Watch this remarkable true story today: 🔗 in bio. 💕 @scaddotedu @scadcas @sabrinaspanta #SCAD #SSFF #OnceABeeAlwaysABee #SCADFamily #Refugees #Afghanistan #WorldKindnessDay
