A mystery thriller, Siren stars Alex Roe, Eline Powell, Fola Evans-Akingbola, Ian Verdun, and Rena Owen. The drama is set in Bristol Cove, a small fishing village which, according to the lore, was once home to mermaids. When the legend proves to be true, the struggle between humans and these predatory creatures begins.
