Synopsis
Dance with the Finless Porpoise (2024) is a Chinese animated fantasy you can watch online on iFILM. For thousands of years, river fairies guarded the magical creatures of the water with a wind-worshipping dance that kept harm away. Then the magic thinned out, quietly, until the wondrous animals had almost vanished.
Saving the last of her kind falls to Jiang Ling, a young porpoise fairy. To hide the creature from poachers, she has to find someone willing to share the wind dance with her — and step out of her sheltered world into the human one for the first time. Tied to the real plight of the endangered Yangtze finless porpoise, this hand-drawn tale wraps an ecological warning inside a gentle adventure: fragile things disappear without a sound. Directed by Chen Xi and Chen Weijian, its 85 minutes sit comfortably as family viewing. Stream Dance with the Finless Porpoise (2024) online on iFILM.
