This is the first time I ever saw my boyfriend cry.
Brilliantly captures the wonder of life in the ocean
Beautiful videography and deep musings about the nature of our connections with the wild world and with each other. Gentle and inspiring!
An odd twist on a nature documentary & beautiful to boot.
Unique perspective on a documentary/film. Worth the watch and you won't see much else like it.
Beautiful and meditative. I can't believe I cried about an octopus, but that tells you how good the film is.
Cried like a baby. Very beautiful and touching.
Truly mesmerizing and informative. Went to my local aquarium and saw an octopus, I was fascinated and decided I wanted to learn more.
Unique, and heartwarming. I am just no big fan of a octopus.
Great film - the story and cinematography are fantastic. Definitely check it out!
