‘Memoir of a Snail’ Wins Top Prize at London Film Festival
The 68th BFI London Film Festival has announced its competition winners, including 'Memoir of a Snail' and 'On Falling'
After claiming the Cristal at Annecy earlier in the year, Australian animation “ Memoir of a Snail ” has now won the top honor at the BFI London Film Festival. “Emotionally resonant and constantly surprising, Memoir tackles pertinent issues such as bullying, loneliness and grief head-on, creating a crucial and universal dialogue in a way that only animation can. Rungano Nyoni’s Cannes hit “On Becoming a Guinea Fowl” was given a special mention, described as an “intricately crafted story brimming with imagination that dares to say the unsayable about a sexual predator in a close-knit Zambian community.”
