Taking place at Cape Town’s iconic Labia Theatre\, this once-off\, free screening kicks off at 17:15. \nAlthough entry is free\, space is limited\, so be sure to reserve your tickets by answering a few simple questions on the Oceaneers website. \nFive exciting eco-conscious brands are coming together to present this once-off screening to the public. Filmed just off our shores in the Great African Seaforest\, My Octopus Teacher follows Craig Foster and his team from the Sea Change Project\, as they try to understand one of nature’s most fascinating sea-creatures. \n \nThe documentary has been described by New York Magazine as ”one of the most touching accounts of interspecies relationships ever told.” \nThe lessons Craig takes away from his spectacular encounters are significant and the message he shares with us is profound. \nIn the film Craig recounts\, “What she taught me is to feel that you are part of this place. Not a visitor. And that’s a huge difference.” \nWith Mahina towels for sale\, complimentary treats from Happy People Foods\, delicious post screening snacks from Camissa Moon and prizes from Captain Fanplastic\, this event is surely not one to miss. Plushi will alo present their short about sustainability called\, “Think Conscious.” \nFor those who feel a strong call to action\, you are invited to become an Oceaneer. \nShare this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreEmailPrintPinterestLike this:Like Loading...\n\n Related stories URL:https://thegreentimes.co.za/event/world-ocean-day-2021/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
