Austrian martial arts fighter Sarah (performance star Florentina Holzinger in her first film role!) is at the end of her rope and career. A job offer as a personal trainer for three young women in Jordan comes at just the right time. It sounds like a dream job in the palace for this white "migrant worker" in the Middle East. What initially appears to be a lucrative assignment soon unfolds into a disturbing scenario: The girls live isolated from the outside world, under constant surveillance, and show zero interest in sports. Sarah begins to wonder why she's really there and what's going on behind the closed doors of the villa.

Director Kurdwin Ayub, known for her debut film "Sonne," which won an award at the 2022 Berlinale, directs "Mond," a suspenseful thriller that explores themes such as cultural differences, patriarchal structures, and the role of women in society. "MOND" premiered as the second part of the trilogy at the 2024 Locarno Film Festival, where it won the Special Jury Prize.
