About This Show
Hela – Erin, a young Mother, has lost her son but no one will listen. In a futuristic, dystopian Wales, justice is determined – like everything else – by an algorithm. Hela asks if our obsession with data can truly be trusted? Can deep seated pain ever be defused? And how far we are willing to go to see justice happen? The Story – A volunteer arrives back from working in a refugee camp to discover she is now an “enemy of the people.” Arrested and imprisoned for her actions, the only way to maintain her sanity in a world turned upside down is to discover the identity of the mysterious interrogator from her past. The Story is a psychological thriller that interrogates the language of ?othering’ and the stories we tell ourselves to justify violence. Is mental torture worse than physical?
