Underwater photography presents the octopus: breathing, swimming, eating, dying.

La Pieuvre

FR - HD 

At a marine biology station, a clump of algae reveals polyps, stomachs with limbs, limbs with buds, buds with poison cells. This animal reproduces by buds, which we watch close up in time-lapse images. In another kind of jellyfish, the buds grow inside then live outside for a few days until being on their own. Another produces eggs, sometimes self-fertilized. Some single eggs become buds with colonies. Another clump gathered at low tide consists of filaments of a colony - plumes with poison ends. In images taking 72 hours, we see filaments grow and produce a feeding organ from which a plume emerges. New jellyfish emerge from buds twice a day at set times to form a new colonies.

Comment naissent des méduses

english

In mud flats along the coast of Brittany we watch acera, small ball-shaped mollusks that are about two inches in diameter. They rest in mud; then, in water, they dance, their skirt-like hood spreading like a dervish&#x27;s cassock. They spin and spin. The film adds musical accompaniment. We watch them mate and secrete eggs: acera are both male and female, and can form chains with other acera in which they simultaneously mate as a male and as a female. The eggs hatch, and the cycle begins again.

Acera, or the Witches' Dance

A close-up look at sand urchins and rock urchins. At the seashore, a man digs up a sand urchin. We look closely. He sets it back in the sand, and it burrows out of sight. Its intestines take nutrients out of sand. Using magnification 200,000 times normal size, we see a rock urchin&#x27;s spines with suckers on the end; a drawing illustrates how they work. A sea urchin walks toward a rock. We see three-fingered jaws - pedicellaria at the end of flexible stems - take in algae and other bits. We also see cilia less than 0.001 ml in length; their motion constant, creating whirlpools. On the shore again, we watch the setting sun. Occasional titles in French tell us what to watch for.

Sea Urchins

An octopus slithers into a narrow crack near the shore; we see its eye up close; blowing water propels it through water. It feeds on a crab. In spring it&#x27;s time to mate. A male grabs a female; he inserts his third arm in her respiratory cavity. We watch another pair: a larger female is the aggressor here. Mating is repeated over hours and days. With high magnification, we see many sperm; she releases strings of fertilized eggs that hang from the roof of a nest. She guards it for a month, fanning the strings to circulate water for oxygen and cleanliness. We watch the eggs up close develop at 1,400 times nature&#x27;s rate. Then they&#x27;re born and propel away.

This movie is a story about French railroad workers who were part of organized resistance during the German WW2 occupation.

Le chef d’œuvre de René Clément, film réaliste exaltant l’héroïsme des hommes du rail durant l’occupation allemande, est à l’origine un film commandé dans l’immédiat après-guerre par le Comité de libération du cinéma français, la SNCF et le Service cinématographique des armées. Il dépassera toutefois son statut d’œuvre de commande en remportant le Grand Prix du tout premier Festival de Cannes en 1946 et en recevant un immense succès populaire.
Le film a été remasterisé et restauré en 2010 par l'Institut National de l'Audiovisuel.
