The overall tone of the film has a meditative atmosphere, quietly exploring the world of a small animal.

Looking back at the story that happened in a small corner of the world, and thinking back, my thoughts and vision have long been locked by ordinary life, but I have been stretched out while watching a movie. Think about the scale of the world and your own scale. As soon as you make a comparison, you will suddenly be enlightened, and you will feel the calm state of mind in this world.

The ups and downs of the little octopus also project the trajectory of our lives. Its calm attitude and choices are exactly what I need to learn.

    The moment Mr. Octopus took the first step towards the human world, it made me feel goosebumps. But when I finally saw her dying, I remembered that the moment she played with the fishes, I burst into tears in an instant. She might have known that these fishes would soon become her own executioners, and have a last time with them. Joyful. She is about to leave this world after her mating and breeding offspring are ushered in, and the fishes that have played with her are eating her bite by bite without mercy, and finally the remains are snatched by the nightgown shark. Maybe she thinks too much. One bite of her can give her children more hope of survival, and the more they think about it, the more tears they burst. In the human world, most of the anthropomorphic descriptions of octopuses are villains, but in reality they are soft, warm, smart, strong, and delicate that humans can't imagine!

My Octopus Teacher quotes

  • Craig Foster: What she taught me was to feel... that you're part of this place, not a visitor. That's a huge difference.

  • [first lines]

    Craig Foster: A lot of people say an octopus is like an alien. But the strange thing is, as you get closer to them, you realize that we're very similar in a lot of ways.
