Pitch
A former martial arts expert, Sarah leaves Austria to train three sisters from a wealthy family in the Middle East. What at first seems like a dream job quickly becomes unsettling : the young girls are cut off from the outside world and under constant watch. They do not seem interested in sports. So why has Sarah been hired ? “Nour wants to escape from her cage, while Sarah is secretly seeking to reclaim hers. Theirs is the story of sisters, no matter where they are from, and of cages, no matter where they are. Is Sarah truly helping Nour or is she exposing herself to a danger she doesn’t fully understand ? Who can she trust ? Does she help her without either knowing the truth or even who is right ? And we as viewers, what would we do? Would we believe in her ? ‘Moon’ should leave the audience with more questions than answers. Reality is complex and there are usually no simple solutions. I hope that the public will be disturbed by the feelings ‘Moon’ arouses.” Kurdwin Ayub
