纪录片介绍： Ocean Giants Ground-breaking documentary granting a unique and
privileged access into the magical world of whales and dolphins, uncovering
the secrets of their intimate lives as never before. Doug Allan has been
swimming with marine mammals for over 35 years. He spent seven years in
Antarctica as a research diver, scientist and photographer for the British
Antarctic Survey, before changing direction to full time filming in 1985. In

humpback whales gather into alliances in which individuals pool their
specialised talents to increase their hunting success. We discover how young
spotted dolphins learn their individual names and the social etiquette of
their pod, and how being curious about new objects leads Caribbean bottlenose
dolphins to self-awareness and even to self-obsession. Finally, the film shows
