To Be Takei chronicles the life of eminently likable actor and activist George Takei (Tak-AY, not Tak-EYE, as he'll be the first to tell you). Best known for his role as Sulu on the original Star Trek TV show, the baritone-voiced Takei's popularity has only grown since he came out as a gay man in 2005, at age 68. He's become a bit of an Internet darling, spreading his trademark wit and zest for life on his Facebook page, which is followed by 7 million people and counting. Director Jennifer M. Kroot shares Takei's history in detail -- from his early days spent in a Japanese internment camp during WWII to his theatrical training and subsequent acting career to his development into a vocal activist for both the Asian-American and LGBTQ communities -- while interlacing it with present-day footage of Takei's life with his longtime husband and partner, Brad. Featuring interviews with lasting Star Trek friends like Leonard Nimoy and Nichelle Nichols, Takei's "enemy" William Shatner, politicians, and lots of Hollywood celebs, the film depicts a uniquely American journey that's certainly not over yet.
