A crowdfunded documentary is pulling back the curtain on a time when movies like Blade Runner took place in the future. In Search of the Future will look at the making of classic '80s sci-fi movies such as Back to the Future, Aliens, The Terminator and Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, among many others.

In Search of the Future is directed by veteran entertainment journalist David Weiner, who previously helmed the '80s horror documentary In Search of Darkness. He is also a contributor to The Hollywood Reporter, where he has written lengthy features on the 1978 animated film The Lord of the Rings and 1979's Star Trek.

"In Search of Tomorrow will be a celebration of the imagination, exploring the most creative and eclectic sci-fi movies of the ‘80s, year-by year, with the creative icons who helped to capture our collective imaginations," Weiner says in a statement.

The makers of the documentary are also organizing a number of online events surrounding its making. Source
