We’re delighted to announce that Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story has been honoured with two Emmy® Awards at the 46th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards, presented by The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences last night (26 June 2025).

The film received accolades in the following categories: ‘Outstanding Writing’ recognising the brilliant Charlie Hamilton James who brought this truly incredible story to the world and ‘Outstanding Promotional Announcement’ for the heartfelt trailer which captured the spirit of our film.

Produced by Silverback Films, and from Director Charlie Hamilton James and Producer Jeff Wilson, the documentary follows Billy, a salt-of-the-earth philosopher and Molly, a half-drowned, starving young female otter that Billy stumbles on one rainy evening in the Scottish subarctic. From there, an unlikely relationship begins that eventually saves them both.

Billy & Molly is a remarkable story of trust, of joy and a shared love of the simple things in life. Watch now on Disney+
