Here's one for the ecologists of the world. The Dolphin is nothing more or less than the story of a libidinous sea mammal! Walter Lima Jr., former Brazilian journalist and "auteur" of Brasil Anno 2000 (1969) and Xico Rei (1982), has cooked up the weird tale of a dolphin who, by the light of the full moon, transforms into a man. In this guise, he wriggles his way through a fishing village, mystically arousing the libido of every human female in sight. Normally, the other men in the village wouldn't mind -- except that every time the dolphin-man arrives, he scares away the fish.
