Event Summary:

Picturehouse 441 and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote film literacy. Join us for a Q&A with writer/producer/director Adam Elliot as he discusses his stop-motion animated tragicomedy Memoir of a Snail. Adam Elliot has not made a feature film since 2009’s beguiling Mary and Max. The 15-year wait turned out to be well-worth it, though, as Memoir of a Snail is as personal and moving as its predecessor. Edited by Bill Murphy and brought to life by an outstanding voice cast led by Sarah Snook, this tale of the odd, dysfunctional, and darkly funny life of a woman named Grace is full of endless surprises and a deep well of emotion. Only the second R-rated film ever nominated for the Best Animated Feature Oscar, Memoir of a Snail is an ultimately hopeful, life-affirming story of a woman coming into her own against all odds from one of the most distinctive voices working in animation today. This event will be a Live Zoom Webinar on Monday, February 17 at 8PM ET/5PM PT with two encore livestreams to follow on Vimeo. Encore 1: Monday, February 17 at 11PM ET/8PM PT Encore 2: Tuesday, February 18 at 3PM ET/12PM PT **ACE members, please check your email for free ticket information.**
