SCC presents - Memoir of a Snail

Southside Community Cinema (SCC) are thrilled to announce our first ever screening. We will be screening Memoir of a snail.

Memoir of a Snail is a tragicomedy about a young woman who retreats inside herself to protect against the tragedies of her youth. this metaphorical shell becomes a constructed prison that she must break free from in order to experience life.

Poignant, funny and original, we have chosen this stock motion film as our first screening to celebrate human creativity and the tactility of animation.

This screening is funded through the Cinema For All launch campaign - a national charity committed to creating spaces for people to share cinema around the UK.

This means our first screening will be at a reduced cost of £3 - with 100% of this going directly into our community.

All proceeds from our first screening will be going directly to the Govanhill Baths Community Trust. The trust’s key goal is to reopen the baths as a wellbeing centre and to contribute to the wider social, cultural and built regeneration of Govanhill community.
