My Octopus Teacher (2020)

/noise/movies | Link

Burnt-out South African doco maker Craig Foster recovers by making friends with an octopus in a kelp forest at Western Cape (False Bay near Cape Town) while free diving. Oscared as best doco in 2021. The cinematography is first rate. Far better than some thin speculation about octopus cultures.

Thinly reviewed, mostly retrospectively and salaciously.
