One Never Kills for Love/The Octo Connection: Life and Love: Oaki the Octopus/Seeds of Life~~~~~
This film chronicles one woman's extended interactions with one octopus. But fair warning: if you want to be able to keep eating calamari, don't watch this film-- at least one Big Water committee member has sworn off the stuff after viewing the film. While the film raises questions about the appropriate way for people to interact with wild animals, the intelligence of the octopus and the empathy we feel for it are brought home unmistakably and unavoidably, in a way that a more objective documentary might have missed.
