Tova Sullivan, a widow coping with the loss of her husband and the mysterious disappearance of her son, forms a remarkable friendship with Marcellus, a curmudgeonly giant Pacific octopus, while she works at the Sowell Bay Aquarium. Marcellus unravels the truth about her son's disappearance and must find a way to tell her before it’s too late. “Remarkably Bright Creatures” is an exploration of friendship, reckoning, and hope, and a gentle reminder that sometimes taking a hard look at the past can help uncover a future that once felt impossible.
