This is an emotional life drama narrated by an octopus (Alfred Molina). In the end two characters come together in an unexpected way. Tova (Sally Field) lost her son when he was in high school due to a boat accident. Cameron (Lewis Pullman) comes to town looking for his father. He stays with a friend, Ethan Mack (Colm Meaney) of Tova's, living in his van. He is hired at the local aquarium, where the octopus resides. He is going to replace Tova as the janitor, who is thinking of crossing the bay and living in a senior home. Cameron find the man he thought was his father, but he is not. He has a girlfriend, Avery (Sofia Black D'alia). But he blows it when he meets her son who is high school age.
The octopus has to go to drastic measures to fix things, before he returns to the ocean to die.
This movie is a current offer on aNetflix. It is very likable. The ending is very good.
