THE BRIDGE of the U.S.S. Enterprise comes under attack in “Blood and Fire, Part 1,” written by Carlos Pedraza.

Pursued and damaged by repeated Klingon attacks, the crew of the Enterprise responds to the distress call from a Federation research vessel. In a matter of hours, that ship and crew will be consumed by a nearby star while the crew of the Enterprise faces a mysterious horror that threatens both ships.

BLOOD AND FIRE, PART 1View the Internet Movie Database entry in a new windowCarlos Pedraza adapted this acclaimed, controversial and never-produced Star Trek: The Next Generation script by David Gerrold into this two-part episode for the award-winning Web series, Star Trek: Phase II. Guest-starring Evan Fowler and introducing Bobby Rice as the Captain’s nephew, Ensign Peter Kirk, Part 1 of “Blood and Fire” breaks new ground for the Star Trek franchise, introducing the first openly gay characters in the original series’ history.

UPDATE Part 2 of “Blood and Fire” is scheduled for release Friday, Nov. 20, according to the Star Trek: Phase II Web site. More information.

A homeless teen (Brandon Larcom) struggles with dangerous choices from the fateful flip of a coin.

In Begging for Change, two universes diverge from a single random coin toss in this dramatic short about desperation and redemption. Living out the aftermath in parallel but intertwined stories, a homeless teen rejects the aid of a handsome jogger, only to continue to live hungry and abused on the streets; in an alternate timeline, the coin flip leads the same boy into the arms of that same jogger, but with significantly different consequences. Will either path lead him home?

Back again at Q-Cinema, Begging For ChangeView the Internet Movie Database entry in a new window won the award for Best Dramatic Short Film. Making a departure from J.T.’s usual comedies, Begging for Change tackles deadly serious subjects.

Festival Director Barb Lee, says “J.T. refuses to let us shut our eyes when the going gets rough. Nor does he allow us our comfortable queer ending. With Begging for Change, J.T. has proved he is more then just the director of gay lifestyle comedy films. He has become an artist of film, able to reflect to us reality whether it is absurd and laughable or serious and important.”
