When My Octopus Teacher first debuted on Netflix, viewers were unsure what to make of it from the title. Was it a sci-fi fantasy? An animation film?

Tracing the tender, almost mentor-like relationship between a sea diver and a common octopus in South Africa, the 85-minute long film is a poetic, visual feast that has managed to strike a chord with audiences worldwide. .
