1. The Crash
After the news crews leave, what happens next? Catrin Nye presents a series about the aftermath and the long-term effects of tragedy and trauma on humans and on a community.
On November 19th, 2023, four teenage boys from Shrewsbury left Harlech on the North Wales coast for what should have been a camping trip in the beautiful Eryri National Park.
But as they drove between the Gwynedd Villages of Garreg and Llanfrothen, their car swerved off the road into a flooded ditch.
A massive police search was launched. The car was found - but not until two days had passed. All four of the young men had drowned.
In this raw and moving documentary, Catrin Nye explores the long-term impact of such a huge event - long after the cameras have left.
Not just on the bereaved families at the heart of the story, but the community where it happened.
And she asks - what can be done, to prevent such devastating loss of life in the future?
