What are your favourite foreign language productions?

I recently came across a short fan film called, ‘USS K'Ehleyr: Away Team’. The Universal Translators have malfunctioned so everyone is speaking in German (English subtitled)! I really liked the areal shot of the phaser battle (time index 8:23). The outtakes at the end of the video are also worth watching.

They also have released a full length movie called ‘Dark Horizons’, but has not yet been subtitled.

I have been trying to get ‘Starfleet Academy’ on DVD for some time. I am hoping that it will be uploaded online at some point.

This is my central index for non-English language Star Trek Fan Films: http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/219.html . Languages in blue have many films, and each such language has its own page. Languages in turquoise are on this page, below.

I haven't been able to enjoy the films that do not offer English subtitles, but one of my favorites is the Czech "Metrensky Incident," http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/85.html . Last I checked, they were working on a follow-up film, but I haven't contacted them recently.

I have Borg War 2: The Romulan Factor and Borg War 3: Atlantis on DVD, made in 1996 and 1998 in Germany respectively. Both feature length

This is thanks to the late composer Bernd Felsberger who scored the latter, I'm not a German speaker but they look good!

The first film aesthetically matches the mid-TNG era quite well; Voyager uniforms, square back combadges and very good physical sets; bare in mind this was before the digital revolution. The 3rd one changes the sets and uniforms and apparently played in German cinemas!

Obviously there was a Borg War 1 but I don't have that, but a photo I saw decipted the bridge crew on an Ent- D set in very TNG series uniforms, the counsellor had a Troi depress!

Overall it was interesting to see pre-HF TNG fan films. Btw, the director Rene vin Bodisco played one Captain Christopher Riker, who looks a lot like Will...

I have the German Borg War films listed as films I can't offer a way to see.

I'm gonna say Star Trek: Intrepid just in hopes that Nick will repost that little promo he and Lucie did a few years ago - I can't find it online.

Here is a flavour of what Borg ar 2 was like:

Was that the greeting we did for Hidden Frontier's Excelsior Ball? I might have it somewhere. Our director, Steve, got quite offended about that, even though we were just poking fun at the people complaining about our 'thick' accents.

So, Scottish English is now a foreign language? Weird.

Coming from Somerset, England, this is perhaps my favourite foreign language production. Unfortunately it does not come with English subtitles available.

Warning: It’s a bit sweary, I think - without subtitles I can’t be sure.

The universal translators had no chance.

Dennis is a friend. He's just being witty.

Yeah, I think you had it posted in your old forums or something? I thought it was pretty witty and self-effacing. But then, that's just you.

My favorite foreign-language production this morning was the German-language leaked version of the teaser trailer for Star Trek Beyond.

My favorite foreign-language production this morning was the German-language leaked version of the teaser trailer for Star Trek Beyond.

At first I thought you were joking about this. You have made my day. The English version in now on Youtube.

Just in case people thought I was being serious with my previous post, I love Scotland and the accents. I used to have a Scottish girlfriend who had a very deep accent. This was sometimes a problem though, because whenever she was upset with me I had no idea what she was saying. In an argument she would ask me a question expecting an answer and I would have to say, “Please can you repeat the question!”

I also love Intrepid. I can’t wait for your next episode.

Also thanks to everyone who has posted to this thread so far. I have enjoyed watching the shows that you have suggested.

People may think I'm kidding; but one of my favorites from a foreign land is:

The sets they use are actually not bad
