Dolphin Man - Swedish premiere!
Discover the free diver who inspired the cult movie "Le Grand Bleu", listen to an underwater band, test your free-diving-skills, and talk to a world leading diving-scientist!
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. The film weaves together stunning contemporary underwater photography of the world’s leading free divers with intimate testimonies of Mayol’s closest friends and rare film archive from the 1950’s onwards, to discover how the "dolphin man" revolutionized free-diving and brought a new consciousness to our relationship to the sea and to inner-selves.
