Dolphins

Showing May 5 through June 6, 2008

Start summer off with a splash!

Imagine floating in the crystalline, turquoise waters of the Bahamas. Sunlight dances off the rippled, white sand banks. Swimming alongside you are some of the most graceful and extraordinary creatures on earth. While few of us will ever have the chance to encounter a dolphin in the wild, audiences feel like they are swimming in the company of these lively creatures in the returning family-favorite film, Dolphins.

Swim alongside inquisitive Atlantic spotted dolphins, dusky dolphins and bottlenose dolphins as you travel from the dazzling coral reefs of the Bahamas to the wind-swept seas of Patagonia. Submerge yourself below the water’s surface as the camera projects these playful animals onto Fernbank’s 5 story tall IMAX® screen for an up-close encounter you’ll never forget!

Narrated by Pierce Brosnan with music by Sting, Dolphins delves into the ocean to capture the untamed behavior of these charming mammals in the open sea as the film explores their phenomenal communication abilities.
