VTV's News director Jorge Garcia
Alberti, cameraman Sebastian Ferrin, and U.S. Embassy
Information specialist Rubek Orlando traveled to the
United States today, to work on a four-part miniseries
about the most distinct areas of bilateral relations
between Uruguay and the United States. The crew will
visit the cities of Miami, Chicago, Sacramento, Seattle,
New York and Charleston. They will be interviewing
Uruguayans who live and work in the U.S., as well
as a number of American business executives actively
involved in bilateral trade with Uruguay. The program
will cover topics such as beef imports, wines, software,
education and cultural exchanges. The Uruguayan cable
network VTV produced a similar program in 2005 with
very successful ratings. (See related
