(Kim Gwang-tae/2015/South Korea)
Taking the pied piper myth and
reframing it within post war Korea, The Piper is at times fantastical but
ultimately nightmarish and violent. Veering between straight narrative and flashback
it also veers thematically between social comment, myth and classic revenge
story. I’d resist calling it compelling viewing but it kept me entertained
throughout.
(3/5)
