Most of you will no doubt be familiar with the story of the Pied Piper: how in 1248 the people of Hamelin secured the services of a travelling musician who promised to rid them of their rodent infestation, and how, when he was true to his word and they reneged on theirs, he took their children in lieu of the promised payment. It’s a story which you can’t fail to be confronted with in Hamelin itself, which has built an entire tourist industry around it. This is just another cringe factor for teenager Amy (Mia Jenkins), who is already unhappy about having her life derailed so that her mother Liz (Elizabeth Hurley) can take up a teaching job at the international school (fictionally) located there. She tries to be a good sport about it, but after a disturbing incident at the school, she can’t shake the feeling that something is.
