DOLPHINS by MacGillivray Freeman Films

From the dazzling coral reefs of the Bahamas to the wind-swept seas of Patagonia, DOLPHINS takes audiences on an underwater adventure with inquisitive Atlantic spotted dolphins, acrobatic dusky dolphins and the more familiar bottlenose dolphin. Viewers will meet a young woman scientist, Dr. Kathleen Dudzinski, and her two colleagues, mentor Dr. Bernd Würsig and Dr. Alejandro Acevedo-Gutierrez, as they lead us on an exploration into their fascinating world.

While most of what we know about dolphins comes from studying them in captivity, Dudzinski and her colleagues conduct their research with dolphins in the wild, a far more strenuous, time-consuming, even dangerous endeavor. Employing innovative scientific methods and technology, Kathleen and her colleagues set out to learn more about how dolphinscommunicate and their foraging and social behaviors.

Narrated by Pierce Brosnan and featuring a soundtrack with music from Grammy Award®-winning singer and songwriter Sting, DOLPHINS will capture the imagination of audiences worldwide who will gain newfound respect for the ocean and the importance of scientific research to its preservation.

DOLPHINS is produced by MacGillivray Freeman Films in association with the National Wildlife Federation, the nation's largest member-supported conservation group, and with major funding provided by the National Science Foundation and Museum Film Network.
