Few TV series inspire devotion and loyalty the way star trek has, the classic sci-fi show has millions of dedicated followers around the world, with many more than just fans -they are "Trekkers" the most committed enthusiasts. In this fascinating programme we discover from the Trekkers themselves what inspires them and what motivates their love for Gene Roddenberrys timeless creation. Plus we are treated to excerpts from the starship Intrepid and go behind the scenes of the fans-made films to see how a hardy band of trekkers create their own installments, costumes make-up scenery acting and filming.

On February 22, 1975, Northern California's very first Star Trek convention was held at Lincoln High School in San Francisco, CA. It was called "The Red Hour Festival." A huge success with the fans of the original TV series (1966-69), the smash event led to much larger conventions in San Francisco, Oakland and Los Angeles. These "Space-Con" conventions left an indelible mark on the science-fiction fans and "Trekkers" who attended. In the end, conventions like Space-Con helped awaken Paramount from hibernation and led to the creation of the first installment of the major motion picture series "Star Trek" in 1979. This full-length documentary film is the story of how fandom revolutionized an industry.

Uno de mis más preciados elementos patrimoniales -al menos en términos de valor sentimental- es un VHS original de “La Señora Doubtfire”. Sí, puede que debiera visitar a un psicoanalista, o tomarme unas prolongadas vacaciones. Pero el caso es que si hacemos caso al proverbio “mal de muchos, consuelo de tontos”, el tonto que les habla ha encontrado en “Rewind This!”, un redentor oasis documental. Con constantes referencias visuales al VHS, “Rewind This!” es un exhaustivo, instructivo, nostálgico y divertido repaso a la historia del vídeo. Y a la influencia que éste tuvo sobre el proceso productivo cinematográfico. Lástima que su ritmo narrativo -demasiado vivaz-, dificulte la absorción de buena parte de la información transmitida.
