The savage Mabinogi story of the Twrch Trwyth brings ‘myth’ into the adult lives of three ordinary people who first hear the story years previously on a sixth-form school trip.The spirit of the Boar returns in a modern setting affecting the lives, romances and beliefs of everyone who come near it while contesting the widely-held belief that it represents evil. The story travels from Canterbury, New Zealand, to Tara, the ancient capital of Ireland; from the outer world to the darkness of the lower world, from reality to fantasy, but it takes place mostly in the magical hills and groves of north Pembrokeshire where it continues even today, barely below the surface.
