In 1985, George Takei helped a group of diehard Star Trek fans to make a student film in the California forest, but the footage mysteriously disappeared. 36 years later, Beam Me Up, Sulu tells the story of Takei’s extraordinary act of kindness, explores the history of Asian-American representation in television, and shows what Star Trek’s legacy of inclusion means to millions of fans.
