Film Brief

Title:       A Certain Point Of View


As a snail embarks on a journey for a special food, when he comes across a large back door to a run down house.
Legends of a great, luxurious food are said to be kept here.
The door is blocking his destination.
No matter how hard he tries, the snail cant open it.
Realizing he cant go over or around it, he decides to make his own doorway through it.
He fashions a bulldozer out of a conker and a piece of of string and swings head first at the door.
The conker, however, breaks and he falls crashing to the ground.
He then tries to propel himself forward using a toy circus cannon.
He sits in the barrel and waits for the shot.
However he gets stuck inside the cannon, and the full force of it fire enshrouds the snail.
Left in an ash covered mess, he rethinks his options.
Thinking explosions will definitely work however, he lays down a firecracker at the base of the door.
Edging closer with a match gripped in his mouth, the snail lights the small firework.
But being a snail is too slow to avoid the blast and is sent flying.
Having exhausted all other options, the snail gathers a small snail army.
At the head of the crowd, the snail lets out a war cry and charges the door.
They dramatically charge forward in a blaze of speed and dust.
As the camera zooms out the audience realizes the snails are of course moving really slowly and the film ends with the trailer title.
