First of all I think this movie gives a better vision on dolphins than Flipper or Zeus and Roxanne. I think the purpose of the movie is to tell the people that dolphins are indeed born to be in the wild. Yes they are very clever and yes they are nice to look at ! Of course dolphins are dolphins and they are not 100% controllable. You've probably seen those "American" video clips where tamed orca's go wild..Orca's are dolphins.

Now, The point is, the father IS saying to this girl she can't just go in to the water and swim with the dolphin BECAUSE this is dangerous and he explains why. But at the end she is communicating in some way with the dolphin. A wild horse can not be tamed but CAN accept you if it feels you won't harm him(INSTINCT).Don't forget when we grow up, we loose or natural instincts and we act by other influences. It's amazing how children sometimes communicate with animals.

In the end they do tell everyone dolphins should be in the wild but than again for science and for understanding there is examination needed, but this is definitely not the same as an amusementparkattraction.

The dolphin story is a sidestory. The story goes about a confused girl who lost her mother and she didn't know that she had a father. She learns to deal with mothers death.Her father learns how to be a father. I think it's a nice film that goes with the free Willy storyline.I am sorry for my English, this is not my native language.
