Member Movie Night: “Beam Me Up, Sulu” (2026)
Join us for a screening of the documentary “Beam Me Up, Sulu.”
In 1985, the actor George Takei, best known for his portrayal of Sulu on Star Trek, 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. From Tribeca Films.
Running Time: 1h 30m
