Ryan O'Rourke is a dedicated film and television writer with a passion for horror, sitcoms, and animation of all kinds.
The Big Picture The bond between animals and humans can be truly special and a new documentary special at National Geographic shows the depths our connections can reach. Ahead of its premiere on the network, Collider is excited to share a sneak peek at Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story, a film that tracks the real-life tale of a Scottish couple and their otter pal Molly, whom the husband, Billy, forms an attachment with.
Molly opens the footage by splashing around the water and weeds while Billy works alongside her in the marsh. As she finds little morsels to eat, her human companion can't help but marvel at her natural ability to sort through the messy landscape all while looking cute. He remarks on the otter's ability to reawaken a part of him that's been long dormant - his inner child.
Billy & Molly hails from BAFTA TV Award nominee Charlie Hamilton-James, whose most notable experience comes from the long-running BBC nature docuseries Natural World. The loveable otter's tale marks his feature directorial debut, with his only other experience behind the camera coming from the 2011 episode "Heligan: Secrets From the Lost Gardens" of the aforementioned nature show.
'Billy & Molly' Struck a Chord With Viewers on the Festival Circuit Close Just as Molly won over the hearts of Billy and Susan, her story similarly connected with critics when the documentary debuted at SXSW earlier this year.
