What happens when we reframe our experience of grief as a relationship?

Understanding Gwyn is an immersive unscripted story that brings this question to life, as Christina Watson recounts her 34 years of growing up with ‘Gwyn’.

Inspired by counselling & psychotherapy techniques that ‘bring to life’ adverse experiences through externalisation, these have been adapted by the producer into a device for documentary storytelling.
