A step-mother hates her son so badly that she kills him. Her daughter manages to hide her step-brothers bones which she buries under a juniper-tree. The tree is however magical and more special than any other so when a bird flies out of it, you would suspect that something is about to happen. Will the evil step-mother get what she deserves or the boy’s fate cannot be changed? Find out in Brothers Grimm’s "The Juniper-Tree".
