765874 is the title of a series of Star Trek shorts released by OTOY and the Roddenberry Archives since 2022 .

The shorts explore crucial, unseen moments in Star Trek past.

One of the directors behind the shorts in the project, Carlos Baena , spoke to io9 about the project.

The film explores humanity, connection, and what it truly means to be humanâincluding themes of mortality and goodbyes.

Baena : "I wanted the film to be experienced subjectively. Because of it we also made a deliberate choice to exclude dialogue, except for a voice-over from The Wrath of Khan .

Baena : I donât think any of us ever expected the short to receive such a strong response.

Iâm incredibly grateful for this journey over the past three years and the opportunities that have come with it. Iâve now made new friendships that I truly cherish. At its core, my goal was always to tell a human story first . I understood that Kirk and Spock were deeply meaningful to so many.
