A Disney movie about a sixth grader with cerebral palsy who’s nonverbal and uses a wheelchair will receive a special honor from the people behind the Emmy Awards.

“Out of My Mind,” which was released on Disney+ last year, is one of six programs named to the Television Academy Honors this week.

The awards are given annually by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, the organization responsible for the Emmy Awards, to recognize programming that raises “awareness about complex issues facing society.”

“Out of My Mind” stars Phoebe-Rae Taylor — who has cerebral palsy herself — as Melody Brooks, a girl who’s had limited opportunities because of her disability. When a young educator taps into Melody’s potential, she starts to participate in mainstream schooling and rises to the occasion.

The film features Melody using different augmentative and alternative communication systems and the cast includes other actors with various disabilities. Jennifer Aniston portrays Melody’s inner voice.

In addition to “Out of My Mind,” the Television Academy Honors will go to the Netflix documentary “Daughters,” National Geographic’s “Genius: MLK/X,” PBS’s “Independent Lens: Greener Pastures,” the Paramount+ documentary “We Will Dance Again” and “Will & Harper” on Netflix.

“The programs selected explore such important issues,” said Bobbi Banks, a co-chair of the Television Academy Honors selection committee. “The stories told, the voices heard and the lives seen in these programs are a testament to the power of television to educate while entertaining — and to inspire conversation; understanding; empathy; and, when needed, action.”
