Extracts from the 1954 LVN Picture film "Abarinding", directed by Jose Climaco. The clips feature the DZAQTV/Alto Broadcasting System studios at Republic Supermarket, a capture of a television monitor, and the DZAQ control room. This would be one of, if not, the oldest capture of Philippine television on a cinematic film.

The film premiered on June 1954, just 9 months after the introduction of television in the Philippines.
