Overview

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.
