Description of Incident: In 1988 the program METROPOLIS of TVE invited me to produce a new work. I propose to do a work about the Spanish Television. At that time there were no private channels. The title TVE: Primer Intento was the a result of approximately two years of work. During these two years I conducted a research on the archives of the Spanish Television and recorded on the studios and outside. Finally I did the final edit at those studios; a final piece of 40 minutes.

Results of Incident: This work was never broadcasted and neither did I get an official explanation.
