A wondrous documentary that has won over audiences around the world, 'Planet of Snail' is a journey into the life of a most extraordinary couple. Young-chan is an accomplished poet who has been deaf and blind since childhood. He communicates with his wife, Soon-ho, through finger Braille, a unique form of communication where words are tapped on each other's hands. They rely on one another completely; even simple domestic tasks require complex collaboration and everyday moments that most of us hardly notice become tender shared experiences. Combining breathtaking imagery with Young-chan's personal writings, 'Planet of Snail' becomes a transfixing portrait of life on what seems like another planet, where touch communicates everything and love conquers all.
