"We had an amazing adventure meeting and interviewing hundreds and hundreds of STAR TREK fans for TREKKIES, but we didn't venture beyond the borders of the United States and Canada," reads the release. "This time, in addition to following up on some of our original profilees and finding a few new ones in the States, we're going to travel to several countries around the world."

The filmmakers say the second film will attempt to directly address the criticisms of its predecessor.

"One thing we would like to do better is present more of the charitable side of TREK fandom, seeing this in action, and observing and hearing more of the stories of how fans donate their time, money, and other efforts to better their communities," they say.

Crosby and her camera crew will be hitting international conventions this summer, beginning next month with Fed Con in Bonn, Germany (May 2-4). Subsequent citites they'll be attending include: Paris (May 9-10), London (May 12), Bellaria, Italy (STICCon XVII May 23-25), Belgrade/Novi Sad, Former Yugoslavia (May 30-31), Sydney/Melbourne, Australia (June 7-9). The documentarists will then follow up with U.S. locations.

Fans are encouraged to submit their own stories and experiences with fandom through the film's new web site Trekkies2.com. In addition, the filmmakers say they wan to hear opinions on the first film, to facilitate with producing "a film that is fun and informative for everybody involved."
