Sugarcane, Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story, and Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story are the leading nomination vote getters for the Critics Choice Association‘s Ninth Annual Documentary Awards with winners to be named in a ceremony at the Edison Ballroom in NYC on November 10, 2024.
Full Disclosure: I am a CCA member and served on the Documentary selection committee again this year. Sugarcane, a powerful film about an investigation into abuse and missing children at an Indian residential school and its effect on the nearby Sugarcane Reservation, received a leading 8 nominations, while Billy & Molly: An Otter Love Story received 6 nominations for its remarkable and moving tale of a unique friendship between a man and an otter in remote Shetland Islands.
The latter is the kind of wonderful unheralded film that could play exceptionally well with the Academy in the same way that My Octopus Teacher did as it went on to win the Oscar.
Both Sugarcane and Billy & Molly come from National Geographic Films. Super/Man, from Warner Bros. which also received 6 nominations and like Sugarcane (Best Director Docu winner) debuted at the Sundance Film Festival, is the emotional and expertly told story of actor Christopher Reeve and his life-changing near-fatal horse riding accident that led him to become an activist for disability rights.
