Piper is a darker and contemporary twist on the medieval tale of the “Pied Piper,” a vindictive spirit who seeks revenge on those who have gotten away with a crime, and punishes them by taking away their children.
“Piper follows Émigré Liz (Hurley), who moves to a quaint German town with her daughter Amy (Mia Jenkins) but ends up in Piper’s crosshairs when it is revealed she’s hiding a dark secret from her past that puts Amy’s life in jeopardy. The girl’s only hope for salvation comes when she falls for a young and mysterious street magician, Luca. Can he save her from the Piper’s clutches?”
