We spent a morning filming a woman knitting octopuses for pre-mature babies – a program to support pre-mature born babies and mother’s in their fragile journey that an early entry into life have brought.  Inside the incubator, a Pre-mature baby use the knitted octopus to simulate the comforting life in the mother’s womb. A scene we hope to include in our upcoming film “ROOTS & WINGS“.  Birte Frederiksen (woman knitting) filmed by Martina Albanelli, a UCLA Extension Graduate, that joined ElephantTribe.org in September 2014.
