In "Star Trek IX," Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise fulfill one of man's enduring dreams - to find a fountain of youth. When the existence of this newfound paradise is threatened, Picard faces a daunting decision - in order to protect the lives of the inhabitants of this alien world, he must commit treason and take up arms against the Federation itself.

In the story of the film, Picard must save the Federation from itself. He stands alone to protect a magical colony of beings from annihilation. His enemies include a new race known as the Son'a - strange aliens who will do anything they can to steal the "magic" of the colony. Picard becomes involved with a woman from the colony who teaches him remarkable new ways of perceiving the world.
