TREKKIES Documentaries

An engaging documentary that
not only entertains, but paints a
portrait of the largest, most amazing
fan phenomenon in pop culture
history. For 30 years the crew of the
U.S.S. Enterprise has entertained
millions of fans around the world. But
what clearly sets STAR TREK apart
is the fan phenomenon it has created,
a group of people who have come to
be known as “Trekkies.” Interviews
with the original cast are intercut with
the Trekkies, as Denise Crosby leads
the viewer on a journey giving an
overview of this multi-faceted
phenomenon: the conventions, the
costumes, the fan clubs, and of
course, the fans. Often hilarious,
sometimes touching, definitely
fascinating!
