Two Snails Set Off
A forest full of animated animals encourage a pair of snails, who are fully clad in black because they are in mourning for a dead leaf, to celebrate the new spring and reclaim the colors of life. Based on the children's poem by Jacques Prévert entitled "Chanson des escargots qui font à l'enterrement" ("Song of the snails who are on their way to a funeral").

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a poignant metaphor for grief and renewal through its elegant, painterly animation. It relies on the silent contrast between the snails' solemn procession and the vibrant, encouraging forest, exploring how life persistently offers joy after loss.
What lingers after viewing is a gentle, melancholic warmth—a quiet reminder to notice the spring that always follows winter. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Jean-Pierre Jeunet
