- Somewhere in the U.S., in a small farming community called Lowland County, a girl named Piper McCloud is born to a simple, God-fearing farmer and his wife. Piper has a special talent: she can fly. Home-schooled and kept away from outsiders, Piper is lonely. Finally, her parents let her go to a community picnic, where she thinks sheĺl meet new friends. Instead, she terrifies the neighbors by flying up to catch a ball during a kids ́game. In no time, the McCloud farm is besieged. Then, out of a helicopter comes the empathetic Dr. Letitia Hellion, who whisks Piper off to a secret school for kids with special talents. But are things there what they seem to be?
