My Octopus Teacher

Swimming for years in the freezing ocean of Africa’s south end, diver and director Craig Foster encounters an unexpected teacher: a young octopus that appears incredibly curious. Craig visits her lair and follows her for months, until he manages to win over her trust. My Octopus Teacher offers an inspired cinematic experience, while redefining the relationship between Human and the Ocean.
