Summer Institute Film Series Presents: Dolphin Boy
Morad, a teenager from a village in the north of Israel, disconnects himself from humans after the trauma of a violent attack. As a last alternative to placement in a mental hospital, he is taken by his devoted father to be treated with dolphins in Eilat. Morad begins speaking again after months of silence, but he erases his past and refuses to return home to his awaiting mother.
This documentary, filmed over the course of four years, exposes the devastating havoc that human violence can wreak upon the human soul. Dolphin Boy is a compelling, award-winning film that explores the healing powers of love, friendship and nature.
