"After years spent filming some of the pla net's most dangerous animals\, Craig Foster was burned out and depressed\, his family relationships in turmoil. He decided to put a halt to his care er to reconnect with his own roots - the magical underwater world of the k elp forest off the coast of his hometown - Cape Town\, South Africa. For n early a decade\, Craig went diving daily in the icy cold waters\, ditching wetsuit and scuba rig in one of the most predator dense places on earth. The common octopus he met and tracked became first his subject\, then his teacher\, showing him things no human had ever witnessed. Shot over eight years\, with 3000 hours of footage\, My Octopus Teacher documents a unique friendship\, interaction ad animal intelligence never seen before."
