Mark your calendars, ocean lovers! The world’s first documentary focused on the Chinese white dolphin – aka the 🐼 of the sea – will splash onto screens across the country on December 12, 2025. Titled simply Chinese White Dolphin, this film isn’t just about adorable marine mammals; it’s a deep dive into how these creatures symbolize the cultural and ecological heartbeat of China’s Greater Bay Area.
Produced by heavyweights like China Media Group and Guangdong Radio and Television, the doc ties into next year’s 15th National Games, which will light up the Greater Bay Area with sports and spectacle. Fun fact: The games’ official mascot was inspired by none other than this very dolphin! 🏆🌊
Director Yan Dong and team spent years capturing rare footage of the endangered species, blending conservation messaging with stories of local communities. Perfect timing for young eco-warriors and culture buffs alike!
