Plot Summary
Beginning with the arrival by canoe of a TV and VCR in their village, The Spirit of TV documents the emotions and thoughts of the Waiãpi as they first encounter their own recorded images and those of others.

Some people worry, though about the invasive spirits of outsiders that can come through the TV.
