45: A Fragile Peace

Gary O’Brien Talks The Holy Core.


In 2017, filmmaker Gary O’Brien released his first Star Trek fan
film, Chance Encounter. It was well received and has been viewed
more than 50,000 times. Gary lives and works in Oxfordshire,
England, and is part of a growing band of British filmmakers
creating new and exciting Star Trek stories. His latest project,
The Holy Core, is essentially a Next Generation story centered on
the exploits of the Nebula-class USS Vigilance as the crew seeks
to assist the inhabitants of the planet Vita II after a long and
costly religious war. However, all is not what it seems.


In this episode of Continuing Mission, Gary chats with host Tony
Robinson about The Holy Core, what he has learned since Chance
Encounter, and tells us about the Kickstarter campaign designed
to support the new project.
