Desert Island Film: Marcel the Shell with Shoes On PG
Marcel is an adorable one-inch-tall shell who ekes out a colourful existence with his grandmother Connie and their pet lint, Alan.
Once part of a sprawling community of shells, they now live alone as the sole survivors of a mysterious tragedy. But when a documentary filmmaker discovers them amongst the clutter of his Airbnb, the short film he posts online brings Marcel millions of passionate fans, as well as unprecedented dangers and a new hope at finding his long-lost family.
A beloved character gets his big-screen debut in this hilarious and heart-warming story about finding connection in the smallest corners.
Nominated for Best Animated Feature at the Academy Awards.
This screening was selected as a Desert Island Film, with a limited number of tickets available to the public.
