En 1990, Eric Bernard, a fait ses premières armes de réalisateur en école de cinéma avec ce fanfilm Star Trek original et ambitieux, filmé entièrement en utilisant les locaux de son école ainsi qu'une équipe composée uniquement d'étudiants et étudiantes. Sans maquilleur, sans metteur en scène et en utilisant un mélange de petites maquettes et des premières images de synthèse (la planète qui tourne très vite). Ce film a été réalisé par pur amour - et dans l'espoir d'un diplôme passé haut la main. Ce qui a été fait avec brio!

As you'll discover in the film, the crew of the "Ambush" are a very unique and specialised group of people, who would always be the first choice to deal with a delicate matter such as the Romulans.
