Beam Me Up, Sulu

This documentary explores the recovery of a student film shot in the California woods in 1985. The original project featured George Takei and a group of fans, but the recorded material vanished for nearly four decades. The recovery of the footage, released in 2022 as Yorktown: A Time to Heal, serves as a starting point to discuss broader themes of resilience and the struggle for inclusive representation within society and the media.

Directed by Sasha Schneider and Timour Gregory, who also co-wrote the screenplay, the film was produced by Roddenberry Entertainment and Highway Child. The cast features several individuals appearing as themselves, including George Takei, Stan Woo, Garrett Wang, Alexander Siddig, James Shigeta, and Eugene Roddenberry. This science fiction documentary from the United States has a runtime of 90 minutes.
