The Bite of the Dolphin

About This Movie

The Bite of the Dolphin is this intriguing blend of crime and psychological drama that unfolds in a post-exam high school setting. The atmosphere is thick with tension as the mystery unfurls—the discovery of a body in the men's bathroom really sets the stage for deep dives into student relationships and the often murky waters of adolescence. Bullying plays a big part, and you can feel the weight of the secrets. Pacing feels deliberate, allowing the characters' complexities to emerge slowly. The performances hint at a broader commentary on trust and betrayal, particularly in the dynamics between students and faculty. Real notable is how the film plays with uncertainty—was it suicide, or is there more lurking underneath? Quite a layered watch for sure.
