Oscar-winning animator Adam Elliot on his acclaimed film ‘Memoir of a Snail’




Childhood trauma, addiction, poverty, homophobia, religious extremism and disability are just some of the hard-hitting themes in director Adam Elliot’s new darkly humorous film “Memoir of a Snail”. The Oscar winner talks to Eve Jackson about this whimsical and tear-jerking Australian stop-motion film about separated twins, which won the Cristal Award for Best Feature Film at Annecy, the world’s largest animation festival. The feature film also won the top prize at the London Film Festival last year and was nominated for a Golden Globe. Adam also shares his creative process at an exhibition in Melbourne, Australia at ACMI.
