Appearing in ancient legends and myths, dolphins have long been intriguing to humans. Highly curious and intelligent, they often seem to communicate with people. But few humans have witnessed the full behavioral range of wild dolphins under the ocean. A Dolphin Story uses high-definition cameras attached to a ship's hull to follow a pod of dolphins in the sea of Hawaii. [Sony HD Programs © Sony PCL Inc.]
