GALWAD was a week-long story told in real-time across social and broadcast channels. The premise of the story is that for one week the future makes contact with 2022, and at the heart of the story is Efa, who has swapped with her future self. 

 

The GALWAD story was told by a fictional character, Tomos (played by Rhodri Meilir). Tomos is a journalist based in Blaenau Ffestiniog whose blog gathered daily evidence of this remarkable story - from live streams of Efa’s journey in daily episodes, to messages and images which were coming through from the future. As the week progressed, Tomos and Efa’s stories collided in a spectacular finale, before Efa returned to the future - her younger self swapping back. The characters from 2052 we had met in messages were then seen in a 60-minute drama which revealed the 2052 story.

As GALWAD was a real-time story, there are different ways to catch up on the story now the live experience has concluded.
