Synopsis

Beam Me Up, Sulu

In 1985, Star Trek's George Takei joined a group of dedicated fans to make a student film deep in the California forest—only for the footage to mysteriously vanish. Nearly 40 years later, Beam Me Up, Sulu unearths this lost film, revealing not just a piece of fan history but a broader story of representation, resilience, and the ongoing fight for inclusion in media and society.

Wonders of the Sea

The ocean depths are explored with the aid of a submarine chamber of Williamson's invention and a few hardy souls. The construction of the device is examined; but most of the footage is given to plant and animal life, a girl swimming among the coral growths, and two divers who encounter a moray and an octopus.
