Synopsis

It was all great craic - until it wasn't.

What sounds like an epic 10 out of 10 craic sesh takes a turn when Matt realises best mate Chris’s night on the tiles invited a sinister guest home for the after-party.

As Chris recounts the madness, Matt grows increasingly concerned his friend hasn’t clocked the seriousness of the situation he ended up in – never mind having processed the trauma of surviving it.

It’s 2006. In a small town in North Wales, 16-year-old Morgan stands on the edge of his future, guiding us through haunts, hangouts and nights that linger long after the last bus leaves. The year is 2006, Tony Blair is Prime Minister, Twitter has just been launched, and young people are quickly getting used to a world where social media and technology are beginning to take hold. 16-year-old Morgan, voiced by Callum Scott Howells (It’s a Sin), is searching to understand where he belongs, his journey set against the backdrop of a community in Llanberis – a small town at the foot of Snowdon in Wales. Featuring music by Welsh artists including Super Furry Animals, John Cale and High Contrast.
