Short form dramatic presention recommend
Star Trek: The New Voyages - World Enough and Time. This was premiered in August 2007 and shown at the NASFIC and at the Worldcon in Japan. It is available on the internet.
http://www.startreknewvoyages.com/I will avoid spoilers. It is comparable to an episode of the Original Show. True, you may be put off or confused by the fact that they have original characters such as Spock, Kirk and McCoy played by different actors who will seem way to young. I actually think the actor who plays Mr. Spock looks more exotic than Leonard Nimoy and looks more like what I would think a Vulcan would look like.
The story involves a young Sulu and an older Sulu played by George Takai. The episode had a great deal of humor in it but makes some good points. The special effects are rather good for a fan made production. God Bless CGI. I say, try it out. It may not be the level of the recent episodes of Doctor Who or the soon to be seen by folks in the Americas episodes of Torchwood but give it a chance. I would love to see a fan production such as this get a nomination.
