A child molester’s murder at Grand Central Station during rush hour sets in motion
events which shed light not only on this killing, but the six that have led up to it.
During the last six years, a child murdered dubbed “The Piped Piper” has been
abducting and killing children in New York City. Surveillance Detective, Jay
Koslo, was hot on his trail, getting closer to the killer with every victim. In a world
watched over by surveillance cameras, the NYPD relies on Jay to gather visual clues.
A digital Sherlock Holmes, he forgoes physical clues in favor of pixelated evidence.
Impressed with Jay’s talent artistry, the Piped Piper taunts him with clues and an
ever-changing m.o. The trail leads to medical driver Stanley Midlof who, while
almost certainly molested some of the victims did not kill them.
When Midlof himself is murdered, the Chief of Detectives seeks out Jay’s help,
knowing Jay is the only one able to piece together the picture together from the slew
of surveillance and civilian video footage.
Did the Piped Piper kill Midlof, because Midlof had incriminating evidence on him?
Was it a revenge killing?
As Jay edits the Grand Central footage, the truthful and surprising picture emerges.
Because while a camera doesn’t lie, its perspective may. Every angle has a blind spot
big enough to conceal even the biggest of crimes. |

Family patriarch Howard always thought that his weekend house would be the
place where his family spends time together for years to come. Today, however,
the picturesque setting in the Vermont woods is where members of the May family
pursue their individual and self-centered goals. Daughter Caitlin uses the cabin to
escape into her work, son-in-law Julian as the romantic backdrop for his love trysts,
and grandson Marshall as the perfect hideaway for his drug use.
A rainy spring weekend would be no exception, were it not for poor communication,
which results in the family members arriving on the same night. Upon learning of
the unlikely family reunion, Howard makes an unscheduled appearance in order to
break through the façade of lies and false relationships his family presents him with.
But, as the night wears on, it becomes clear that pursuing the truth is a two-way
street -- for Howard, the most aggressive truth-seeker of them all, may harbor the
biggest secret. |

Red-hot television comedy writer, Jake Kelmer, is living the fast life. Money, women
and a condo on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, with a sure feeling that the
nouveaux riche ride will last forever. But when his smash-hit show is pulled from
the air, he must confront the possibility of a poorer tomorrow.
Faced with the choice of going under, or of getting a real job, Kelmer does what any
reasonable entertainer would do: he connects his flexible-but-desperate actress
friends with eligible widowers, and collects a handsome finder’s fee.
Is he a straight-up pimp, or a companionship broker? And if he is a pimp, what are
the chances of a by-the-book vice cop shoving a big plug into Kelmer’s plans?
In a tale that winds its way through New York City with the grittiness of a brand-
new finger nail file, “The Pimp of Park Avenue” proves that the truth, not sex, is the
most precious commodity of all. |
