EmeryBunch Documentary Film Group
This film group was inspired by the Clarewood Film Group and evolved out of our “Happiest Hour” which we started on ZOOM when the pandemic started. So far we have watched on our own and later discussed on ZOOM “Searching for Sugarman”, “13th,” “The Human Element” and “RBG”.
On December 11, we will discuss My Octopus Teacher. A filmmaker forges an unusual friendship with an octopus living in a South African kelp forest, learning as the animal shares the mysteries of her world.
After years of swimming every day in the freezing ocean at the tip of Africa, Craig Foster meets an unlikely teacher a young octopus who displays remarkable curiosity. Visiting her den and tracking her movements for months on end he eventually wins the animal's trust and they develop a never before seen bond between human and wild animal.
The film is available on YouTube and Netflix.
