Man, dreams and the sea. The combination of rare archival footage and modern underwater shots in Lefteris Charitos’s impressively humane documentary parallel the experience of free-diving with an inner-self journey through the world of Jacques Mayol, the Dolphin Man.

Synopsis

Dolphin Man draws us into the world of Jacques Mayol, capturing his compelling journey and immersing viewers into the sensory and transformative experience of free-diving. From the Mediterranean to Japan and from India to the Bahamas, we meet Mayol's closest friends and family to reveal the portrait of a man who reached the limits of the human body and mind, not just to break records but hoping to discover the deeper affinity between human beings and the sea.
