An octopus has eight arms, three hearts, a flexible physique, a decentralised nervous system, the ability to communicate via colour and texture – but above all, a great deal of curiosity and openness towards encounters with human beings. In Temple du présent, a dance with an octopus asks fundamental questions about human beings and their relations with other species.

Rosendal Kino is showing the film from the performance Temple du présent, and gives the audience an opportunity to experience quite a different encounter with an octopus.
