About this listen

More Than One Octopus: follow the stories of Pippa Ehrlich, the Director of My Octopus Teacher, and Zolani Mahola aka 'The One Who Sings', a celebrated musician in her home country.


When Pippa receives backlash against My Octopus Teacher over issues of race and privilege, and Zolani feels that she has lost a connection to her voice, the two friends go on a mission to untangle South Africans' complex social and cultural relationships with the ocean. Bonded by a shared love of the Great African Seaforest, they take a deep dive into how Apartheid has severed connections to the sea, and examine how their disparate backgrounds have contributed to their own sense of watery belonging.
