Enthusiastic snail collector and romance novel reader Grace Pudel looks back on a life that has not always been kind to her. Animation, Drama / AU 2024 / Director: Adam Elliot / 95 min. / Original version with German subtitles / PG12
After the death of their mother, Grace and her twin brother Gilbert grow up with their paraplegic, alcoholic father. When he also dies unexpectedly, the siblings are separated and placed in different foster families. While Gilbert is exposed to the cruelty of a fanatically religious family on the other side of Australia, Grace withdraws more and more into herself – just like her beloved snails. It is only through her friendship with Pinky, an eccentric older lady full of joie de vivre, that she regains hope and realizes how beautiful life can be despite all its hardships.
