The production company Beta Entertainment Spain and Play the Unit, the audiovisual division of the newspaper El Mundo, have begun production of the factual documentary format “7200 seconds.” This is a program in which, for seven thousand two hundred seconds (two hours), five cameras with five different points of view will follow the protagonists of a major event, either personal or professional.

The series begins with the concert of the star, singer and influencer Ana Mena at the Wizink Center in Madrid, held on September 9 of this year. The show was the most important of her career and it was also the first time she sang in front of such a large audience. The venue's capacity was sold out with 12 thousand people.

This first episode of “7200 seconds” with Ana Mena will be available on Prime Video Spain in the coming weeks. Javier Pérez de Silva and Christian Gockel are the executive producers of the series on behalf of Beta Spain, while Miguel Toral takes the same role on behalf of Play the Unit. The directors are Jacobo Eireos and Elena Zapata.

“We have wanted to develop this concept for years. It is very simple, but very powerful when it comes to narrating what the countdown of the production of a great event is like. It can be a concert like Ana Mena's, a premiere, a soccer match, a birth, any great experience in the personal or professional life of a great person,"  Javier Pérez de Silva explained.

“This is a unique opportunity to tell a reality that is never seen, but that always produces enormous curiosity in the viewer. It is a very different behind the scenes,”  Miguel Toral concluded.
