Mond (2024) Movie Script
1
[Muffled shouting]
[Commentators speaking, muffled]
[Voices becoming clearer]
[Commentator, male voice]
I just
cannot believe what we're seeing here.
Sarah Reisinger looks ordinary once again,
[Commentator 2, male voice]
Could
be as well, the tail end of the career,
the body doesn't take as much
punishment, you don't recover as much,
and the young guns
have youth on their side.
[Commentator 1]
Nobody
saw this coming, Dean.
Dominance here,
Knee-On-Belly from Mandy Bhm.
[Commentator 2]
This is devastating,
if she can rise up
she can land some decisive shots.
[Commentator 1]
Reisinger
looks so frustrated, Dean.
Her legacy, her fame,
everything she fought for,
and this could very well
be the end of her career.
[Commentator 2]
Bhm looking
for the Rear Naked Choke,
this is a contortion and a squeeze.
-
There's the tap!
-
There's the tap.
[Commentator 1]
An incredible performance here.
- [Applause, cheerful music over speakers]
- Well, there you have it folks.
So surprising, the experience
should have kicked in and saved her.
She seemed like the last time
we see Sarah in the cage.
[Refrigerator hum]
MOON
[Muffled music, distant]
[Rock music over stereo]
[In German] Yeah.
Exhale hard.
[Puffing]
[Sarah] Too slow.
Extend your arm.
[Sara switches to English]
OK, shake up the arms.
[Back to German] And now, real fast...
- [They laugh]
- Left, right.
Left, right.
[Boxer 1, in German] My glove
hurts me when I hit.
- Where does it hurt?
- Here in front.
Squeeze it, it's like really hard.
We're not hitting that hard.
Make sure you hit the pad
with this part of your fist.
Arms up.
- Do I look cool?
- [Boxer 2] Sort of.
You have to learn that if you extend,
you have to come back to your chin.
Quick and explosive!
[Whooshes] Ok.
Punch just once.
- Ow.
- And right back to your chin.
Again.
Nice and easy.
I hold it up and you lean in.
[Boxer 1] Stop, you're too intense.
You can't punch me that hard.
Hm?
[Boxer 1] You can't
come into my safe zone.
- I feel really uncomfortable.
- [Boxer 2 speaks indistinctly]
No, I'm just showing
you it has to be fast.
You can't waste time.
[To Boxer 2] Did you see that?
She punched me.
[Woman, in German] I'm worried
about you supporting yourself.
You need to organize your life, y'know?
So far you only have
one and a half clients.
[Sarah, in German] I just
started, it takes time.
What's your plan for the future?
How long will it take?
Do you have a business plan?
Sorry, you don't know the field.
I mean, it's your business, right?
- I don't need a...
- Sarah! Sarah!
Can you put your mug on the coaster?
It's not there for decoration.
- Are you serious?
- Yeah!
[Woman] That's white wood.
It's white wood.
The coffee ring will...
I bet the baby's puked on it.
Are you joking?
Use a coaster.
You put it on the wood again.
I don't get you.
This is my home.
Every time, you don't care.
Is it 'cause you're breastfeeding?
- Seriously?
- [Sarah laughs]
It's not because of hormones.
- What's your problem?
- You're a pain!
[Woman] It's always the same.
She has to be changed.
[Man] I'll do it.
[Distant bell tolls]
[Clattering]
[Coffee burbles]
As you see, I've had a pretty
long life already in the martial arts.
And to be honest, it, um...
this job, it kind of
fits into my life perfectly.
Because now I'm at this point,
I really did more than 20 years of
martial arts, or something like that.
Um, and, I'm really excited
to share this with other people.
And, I did it all you know?
I did the floor, I did the striking.
I did like Judo, I did Kickboxing,
I did Muay Thai...
I mean, you call it.
So I'm really excited
to hand this on to other people,
and of course I'd be super excited
to give this to the girls, especially.
Excellent, I mean,
listen, my sisters are,
I would say they're relatively fit.
We have instructors
and fitness trainers coming in
throughout the year,
all the time,
so it's not like they've
never trained before.
And then it might be something
that's different and exciting.
It's something that's become
very trendy in the region lately.
- So... yes.
- Ah, brilliant.
I didn't know that it's really well known.
It is, very recently,
has become something that's hot.
And I'm glad that my sisters
are excited about something
Oh, cool.
and I just want to make sure that I get
them something that not only is fitness
but it's at least something
that they get excited about.
In terms of logistics
and timelines, Sarah,
you mentioned that you're flexible
over the next month or so,
to come over here for
a few months and train my sisters.
Absolutely, yes, yes.
I'm actually very flexible
at the moment, so...
if you want me to start training
them tomorrow I could actually do that.
[Chuckles]
Excellent, excellent,
great great great.
You know, I've talked to a
lot of instructors and trainers
it seems like your timeline works the best
and it works for us.
So that's great news.
And, um, just expect communication
from me over the next few days,
so that we can talk
more about details, and...
nice to meet you, Sarah.
Yeah, very nice
to meet you too. [Chuckles]
- [Loud rock music on stereo]
- [Woman, in German] Finally, here we go.
[He laughs, whistles]
- You're a mind-reader.
- Yeah!
Can you smoke outside?
It stinks enough in here already.
[Woman] Leave the window open overnight.
No...
[They chuckle]
I want to start training again.
I'm so out of shape.
You look great and crazy hot.
- [Sarah] Yeah, right.
- Compared to us!
- My belly's as fat as yours.
- Fuck you.
As whose?
Fuck you.
As fat as his, not yours!
[Sarah] I got this great job offer.
I'm going to Jordan to train some girls.
- [Man] Where?
- Jordan.
Seriously?
"Send $5000 to a prince
and you'll inherit his estate"?
And she answers!
"I got a job offer!"
The super-rich have
trainers in their villas
with their own gyms
in their basement, y'know.
No way!
[Man] From the Austrian sticks to Jordan!
MMA is super...
super popular in Jordan.
Do you have to wear a hijab?
If you arrive there not wearing one,
they'll stone you, drag you
through the streets. No, really.
Did you buy a scarf?
[Woman 2] Your grandma's
won't match your shorts.
They won't make me wear a hijab.
- [Man] You'll wear it by choice.
- [Woman 2] Like all the women!
Sure, voluntarily! Of course!
[Woman 1] But would you wear one,
if they said you had to?
I dunno, if it looks good...
It's not just a piece of fabric.
[Woman 2] Don't make it so complicated.
You can make it your brand.
Y'know like wrestlers...
Like Mexican wrestlers
with their masks.
You show up in a hijab and burka
and crush them all.
"I'm an oppressed woman
and I'll fuck everyone up."
[He imitates punches]
[Cheerful, loud pop music]
- [Woman 1] Now you have to.
- Oh god!
[Wind blows]
[Chill ambient music]
[AC hums]
[Shutter clicks]
[Distant call to prayer]
[Soft music muffles call to prayer]
Sorry, how long are we gonna ride?
How long is the way to the house?
Do you speak English?
[Window whirs]
[Men speaking Arabic indistinctly]
[Birds and insects chirp]
Woah. [Chuckles]
[Gate clatters]
How are you?
- We finally meet. How's it going?
- Yeah.
- Good.
- Welcome to our home.
- It's an amazing house.
- And our house.
Do it in person.
This is Ammar.
Our father's personal assistant.
- Nice to meet you.
- How was your flight?
Great, actually. Yeah.
[Brother] You guys will be working
closely together over the next few days.
- [Sarah] Okay.
- Please come to my office.
We're just going to do
a few housekeeping things.
- I've been to Austria, once in my life.
- [Sarah] Really?
Yeah, when I was seven years old.
With my family.
I don't remember much,
but I do remember that...
that cake that you guys have,
that chocolate cake.
- The Sachertorte?
- Yes.
I don't know, it's like...
It's a chocolate...
whatever.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- It tastes better.
We have Mansaf here.
- The traditional dish of--
- Ah, okay. I need to have that.
Yeah, you will. I'm sure that
you will get the chance to do that.
- How's the hotel by the way?
- Great.
- Yeah? Very good?
- Really nice, yeah.
Are you.. is it comfortable?
Did they give you a good room?
I think so. I mean they told me
it was an upgrade, or something like that.
I'm on the 28th floor,
I'm having a great view.
- Awesome.
- I went to the pool already.
- Perfect.
- It was nice.
By the way, everything in the hotel
in terms of food, beverages...
Minibar stuff, it's all covered.
- [Sarah] Oh cool.
- Yeah.
I'll finish a few things...
[In Arabic]
Do you know where the
contracts and NDAs are?
Here they are.
Come, take a look at them.
Some are in Arabic,
some in English.
[In Arabic]
I'll fix them.
[Switches to English] Just because
there are a few house rules that we have,
- That we need to make sure that...
- One.
[Brother] It's just basically saying that,
anything that you see,
anything that you hear,
you know, in the house,
stays within the walls of the house.
No social media,
no pictures taken inside the house.
[Ammar]
Asim
... Name.
This is regular procedure, it's for
anyone that works for us, typically.
They have to sign this paper.
- Okay.
- [Brother] Nothing to worry about.
Very regular procedure.
[Brother and Sarah chuckle]
Wait, say again, sorry?
[Brother] The NDA.
It's something that we sign
with everyone that works in the house.
No social media, no pictures,
we just like to keep things... private.
And I hope that's not
an inconvenience to you.
No.
[Brother] Did you have your water?
- Yes, yes.
- Cool.
Now...
we're gonna go and meet my sisters.
- Great.
- Awesome.
So maybe shake out the legs first,
shake out the arms first.
And then we just start with
big circles of the shoulders, to the back.
Leave it for five... four...
three... two... one.
Change direction for five...
four...
three... two...
one.
And stick the feet together.
We just make circles with the knees.
Five... four...
three... two... one.
Change direction.
Five... four...
three... two... one.
Nice, shake out the legs.
We are going for
some jumping jacks.
You all know
what jumping jacks are?
- Yeah.
- Let's do it.
Ten... nine...
eight... seven...
six... five... four...
three... two... one.
And immediately to high knees,
that's a sprint with high knees.
We go for ten...
nine... eight... seven...
Stay compact, six...
five... four...
Try to touch my hands.
Three... two... and one.
Back to jumping jacks.
Two more rounds.
Ten... nine... eight...
- [In Arabic]
Come on!
- Seven...
-
Shut up!
- Six... five... four.
Three... two... one.
High knees.
High knees.
- [Sister 1] Can we take a break...
- Nice.
Between sets?
- [Sister 2] I hope so.
- High knees, and...
last five, yes.
Three... two... and one.
Nice, relax.
Well done, good.
[All breathing heavily]
So catch your breath,
maybe one inhale.
One exhale, and okay.
So next,
I'm going to face the wall,
and you are all
going to face into my direction,
and you see because you're basically
going to watch and copy what I'm doing.
In the beginning this is maybe
going to be a little bit difficult
for you to coordinate, but...
- We do this every day--
- I think I'm done for today.
[Sister 2] I'll, uh... complete tomorrow.
What?
[Sister 2] I'm not feeling well,
I'm done for today.
I'm feeling pain.
- So I'll--
- Pain? Where?
Here.
[Sister 3, in Arabic]
Do you want some medicine?
- No.
- [Sarah] What kind of pain?
I don't know.
I'm just, I'm not feeling it.
- [Sarah] From the pain?
- Not feeling well.
Yeah, so tomorrow.
Ok?
[Sister 1, in Arabic]
Drink some water.
No.
-
Shaima, stay!
-
No.
-
You can't do this.
-
No.
But we are not even
at the beginning of the warm-up.
[Shaima] I know,
but we're still beginners.
Yes, I know,
but you are strong girls.
I don't want to under-challenge you,
do you understand?
You want to have
a little bit of a benefit.
It's not that this is gonna be
just nice from beginning to end.
[Shaima] Yeah, yeah, I'm strong,
but I'm not in the mood today.
So I'll see you tomorrow.
[Sister 1, in Arabic]
This isn't the time.
Bye, guys. [In Arabic]
Stop,
I don't want to do it!
- Bye Sarah.
- I'll go check.
'Cause you know, tell her,
that we can adjust the exercise,
like, I can...
I can work with her.
[Sister 3] Yeah, just give me
five minutes, I'll try to convince her.
[She sighs]
She's so stubborn and won't hear.
[Sarah] Me first, I want to continue.
[Sister 3] Five minutes, promise.
Shaima!
[Sarah] What's the problem?
It's okay.
[Sarah] She doesn't like it?
No, she likes it, of course.
- I'm just gonna go.
- You don't wanna continue?
No, it's okay, it's fine.
We'll do it all together.
Bye-bye.
[Door opens, footsteps recede]
[Door shuts]
[She chuckles, speaks indistinctly]
So, I'll go.
[Door opens, closes]
[Suspenseful, emotional music on TV]
[Sarah] How do you feel?
I didn't train, for a while.
So I think, when I did,
I had some pain.
She's a drama queen.
You'll get used to it.
Yeah, but it's just nice to, uh...
Stay with it, you know?
And not give up.
[Man speaks indistinctly on TV]
[Sarah] What else
are you gonna do today?
Nothing, I'll just eat lunch
and then... chill.
[Sister 1] I do my make-up.
I really like matching my outfit
with my make-up every day.
[Sarah] And you go to school, or...?
We're home schooled.
So teachers come here.
- [Sarah] Ah really?
- Yeah. Mm-hm.
And where are your parents actually?
[Shaima] They live in Qatar.
They live, actually, everywhere.
So they travel a lot.
I think we have a house in every country.
[TV chatter continues]
[Emotional music on TV]
And do you go out a lot, in Amman?
- [Shaima] Not really.
- No.
Abdul told me
there are some great clubs here.
[Shaima] Yeah, clubs.
For Abdul. Not us.
What, you don't like dancing?
- Yeah, we do.
- [Sister 1] We do.
Who doesn't like dancing?
[Uptempo music plays on TV]
[Woman sings]
What's the wi-fi here?
[Shaima] There is no wi-fi here.
You don't have the password?
- No.
- Hm-hm.
We don't have wi-fi.
[Sarah] What seriously?
How do you guys survive?
[Shaima] We're used to it now.
Kind of.
[TV chatter]
Madam, your driver is here.
He wait outside.
[Sarah] So I'll see you... tomorrow?
- Yeah.
- At ten?
Yeah.
[Breathing slowly]
[Soft background music and chatter]
His real name is Penguin.
- No.
- Yes, I know that.
No.
- Like the animal?
- Yes, he is animal actually.
Not me. That's you.
[Server] You can see,
he don't have a neck.
I don't know, I see a neck.
Yeah, I see a neck.
[Server] No, it's small like...
- It's a bit short, yeah.
- Yes, it's short neck.
It's my name, it's nickname.
It's mine. It's Feather.
Father of Feather.
- Ah. Feather? Father?
- Yes.
[Both] Father of Feather.
Father of the Feather?
- I think it's cute.
- [Server] It's cute?
- Yeah.
- I like it.
Father of the Feather?
Yeah, I would love to be called that.
[Server] Mr Jess, did you like his name?
- Say that again?
- [Feather] Father of Feather.
- I think it's beautiful.
- Yeah, right?
I think it's... it's beautiful.
Definitely more beautiful than Jay.
[Man seating] Jay, can we get
another, uh, beer or two over here?
- Sure, with my pleasure, Mr Jesse.
- Thank you, appreciate it.
And about your friend, you...?
- [Man 2 seating] I'm fine.
- You're fine. Okay.
[Jay] Would you like to drink it here?
At the bar?
What is she having?
- [Jay] A local beer.
- A local beer... You know what?
Yeah, let's get
two local beers please.
- [Jay] With my pleasure.
- Are you enjoying it?
- Me?
- Yeah.
Good?
- Yeah, it's good.
- I'm Jesse by the way.
- Hi.
- What's your name?
- It's Sarah.
- Nice to met you Sarah,
that's a very pretty name.
I, uh, my grandmother's name was Sarah.
It's a beautiful name.
Mind if I sit?
So, do you know any Arabic?
Do you know how
to say "hello", for example?
Um...
I dunno,
salam aleikum or something?
- [Jesse] Exactly. Bingo.
- Yes.
[Jesse] You sound like a natural.
- She's good, she's good.
- [Jay] She's good.
[Jesse] Do you know how to say, maybe...
- What about, uh...
- [Jay] Thank you?
Yeah, "thank you".
- Shukran.
- [Sarah] Shukran.
Yeah, I learnt it.
[Jesse] She's better than me already.
I come here, every single night.
Almost every single night,
Jay teaches me a new word.
[Jay] Yes, he's coming...
[Jesse] So your accent is
already better than mine.
Thank you.
[Call rings]
[Chimes]
- [Woman over phone]
Sarah?
- Hi.
- [In German] What?
-
What's wrong? [Sighs]
I just wanted to talk.
It's 11 pm. Everyone here is asleep.
Huh? Since when do you go to bed so early?
Since we have a child.
- Sorry.
-
Is something wrong?
No, I just wanted to talk.
OK. Do you need anything?
If you're so stressed, never mind.
-
I'm not stressed, I'm tired.
- Fine.
Sorry.
Well, if it's important... OK?
Never mind. We'll talk tomorrow.
[Phone chimes]
Ciao.
[Pops]
[Phone clatters]
[Cellphone rings]
Hello, Abdul.
I'm good, thank you.
What do you mean,
instead of training?
Okay. Okay.
Uh, how do I get there?
To the mall?
Okay.
Thank you.
- Hey.
- Hi, how are you?
- Hi.
- Hi.
Hey.
[Door shuts]
Let's go.
[Inaudible;
Background chatter]
[In Arabic]
The mall's empty today.
[Man, in Arabic]
Yeah, it's true.
[Call to prayer over mall speakers]
- [Sister 3]
Excuse me?
- [Man]
Yes?
Do you know where the prayer rooms are?
You want to pray? Great!
-
An example for my sisters.
-
You honor your family.
[Man]
The prayer rooms are downstairs.
[Sister 3]
Can you take us?
- [Man]
Sure.
- [Sister 3]
Good, you lead the way.
[Sister 3]
Come on, let's go.
Um, there's 5GB, 10GB...
20GB.
How long are you staying here?
I'm here for a month.
But I don't need to do any calls,
I just want to be online, you know?
Then 20GB would be best.
[Sister 1, in Arabic]
Come look at this bag.
Sarah, is this nice?
You want my, you want my opinion?
- Honest opinion.
- [Sarah chuckles]
I really don't have a sense of...
- Fashion?
- that kind of fashion.
I don't know,
I think you can find something better.
- It's a bit, uh...
- Old?
Yeah, like you're
a 60-year-old or something.
[Sisters chatter]
Sarah?
Can I use your phone for a bit?
We're not allowed
to have our phones with us.
Try it, because I'm not sure
the internet works over here.
Oh.
I think it's this...
Can I check
my Instagram real quick?
- Of course.
- Okay.
[Sister 1] Sarah, do you like this one?
I don't know.
[Shaima] You asked us three times,
when we told you it's not nice.
It's too childish.
Too pink.
[Sarah] I don't know.
But it's fine, if you want it, get it.
[Sarah] You need to try it, but I think
it's really, um... balloon-ey, somehow.
- [Sister 1] Hm.
- [Shaima] Yeah.
[Sister 1] Did you like the mall?
The mall? I mean it's...
- I don't know, I mean it's like a--
- [Sister 3] Sarah...
Thank you for letting me
use your phone. Thank you.
I'm done now.
- You're welcome.
- Buying anything?
What are you doing after?
Can you come over?
If you want.
[Sarah] What color is it?
It's blue,
because you're wearing blue.
Oh my god!
This is really nice.
Okay, make-up is done.
- Should I...
- No.
You want me to open it?
- No, I'll open it. Wait.
- No.
Because, I have really dry hair.
It's a dread lock back there.
[Chuckles] It's okay, it's okay.
'Cause you know I would need to wash it,
and I would need to brush it,
And I would probably, even,
need to put something in it
so that it looks nice.
Uh, I never have it open.
Can you look at me?
Ah, no.
[Sarah laughs]
Maybe I'll do this.
Oh my god,
you look like a princess.
No, I don't believe you.
- No I don't.
- You do! With this hairstyle.
Sure.
- Ow! Should I not do it?
- No, I'll do it.
Can I have my rubber band back?
That's nice.
I just want to make a tail again.
Just a normal one.
I can do it myself.
- No, no. I'll do it for you.
- You give me my hairband.
No, I'll do it for you.
Hey, can you
give me back the hairband.
Yeah, now it's good.
It's around your wrist, come on.
No.
- Where is my hairband?
- What?
- I don't have it.
- Come on.
- Turn around.
- Come on, I don't want to hurt you.
Just give it to me.
Otherwise,
I have to take it myself, I tell you.
Okay, fine,
I'm just gonna take this then.
But wait!
I take your pink band.
I just need something
to keep it together.
Okay, you can go now.
Just go please.
Are you okay?
Hm-hm.
I'm sorry, I mean
I did not wanna be rude or something.
Ah, you can go.
Please go.
Okay, well...
I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
- Hm-hm.
- Don't... [stutters]
I'll see you tomorrow.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
Why are you upstairs?
[Sarah] Hm?
What are you doing upstairs?
[Sarah] Sorry, in English?
[Ammar] No rooms.
Shaima?
Fatima?
Nour?
[Shaima, in Arabic]
What?
She was upstairs!
I told Fatima. She doesn't listen.
[Nour, in Arabic]
What is it?
You know she's not allowed.
[Sarah] She told me to come up
to the room.
We came back and forgot to tell her.
Anyway, it's not our fault.
-
Ask Fatima.
-
I'm asking you!
She asked me to come up...
[Nour]
Shaima and I forgot to tell her.
[Shaima]
No, tell him that I told her.
[Nour]
It's Fatima's fault, she took her.
Deal with her.
She knows the rules.
What's the problem?
[Ammar]
What's with you,
Fatima? Are you crazy?
She's not our only problem.
[Nour switches to English]
Yeah, no worries,
he was just mad about Fatima.
Yeah, no worries.
[Line rings]
Hey, Bea.
[In German] Can you call me back?
I'd like to talk. Ciao!
[Soft background music]
[Jay] How was your day?
Fucked up.
I mean...
No, it's not so tragic but... weird.
Something about you--
I dunno, these girls
are just so fucking weird.
Why?
I shouldn't tell you.
- You look very tired.
- Yes.
- Yes, I see that.
- I mean, it's late.
Yes, it's late.
I wish I could go back home.
It's because of me
that you have to stay?
No, it's not!
But I can see that you are tired.
[Server] So, where do you work?
[Sarah] I work with this
super rich family.
I'm there as a personal trainer,
so I train the girls.
[Server] Wow, where?
Where? No, I mean...
I don't know where,
they always drive me out there.
Somewhere, in the outskirts.
Can I know the name of the family?
Ah, it's such a fucking
hard name for me to remember.
[Jay] It's so difficult,
I know a lot of them.
[Sarah] So, I'm not sure
if I'm saying the right name.
Al Fahadi, or something.
- Al Fahadi?
- Yes.
- You know them?
- Yes.
Everyone here
knows about this family.
[Server] They are very, very famous.
- Really? Famous for what?
- [Jay] Very rich family.
[Server] I heard that they are,
kind of bad.
- I heard that--
- [Sarah] But bad in what way?
They don't care about the people
who are in front of them.
They hurt them, anyway,
in case they want something.
[Server] Is that true?
I don't know, how would I know?
[Server] You work there, you will know.
I have not seen any...
people who had, like,
"mafioso" written on them.
[Server] I heard that
they only care about their business.
I heard one of the girls
has been kidnapped.
[Jay, in Arabic]
That's enough.
- [Server, in Arabic]
It's fine.
-
You asked a lot of questions.
But this sounds
a little bit like, um...
- Netflix.
- [Server laughs]
[Server] It's true,
how you don't know, like--
I mean, a little bit exaggerated.
I don't think it's--
We have to leave, please,
you have to clean the table.
[Sarah] Tell us, what did you say?
You have to clean the table, please.
Thank you.
Thank you, Chanel.
She is... talk too much.
What, do you think they are mafioso?
I don't have idea, of...
[Chuckles nervously]
Yes, good.
Little bit faster.
Nice.
Nice.
Go.
Yes, actually get up.
Fatima, she's not coming today?
No, no. She's not.
She's a bit sick.
She doesn't feel well.
[Shaima] But that's fine.
- [Shaima] Don't worry.
- She's sick?
[Shaima] Yeah.
Okay, so...
Next time I clap,
chest to the floor.
- [Both] Ok.
- Okay, let's do it.
Elbows in.
Go.
Nice, as fast as possible.
Go.
Yeah, try not to think too much,
it's just chest to the floor.
It's like a drop.
Go.
Yes.
And come back up.
No time to lose.
Yes. Go.
Very good.
Go.
Back up, and arms up.
Go.
[Nour exhales sharply]
How much time
did it take you to learn...
all these, uh...
moves, and to learn the form right?
- It's a never ending process.
- [Sisters laugh]
No, but you know,
I did all kinds of different things.
Actually, I came to martial arts
quite late, but, um...
You're going to see
it just takes you a couple of classes,
and you can do something.
Will you give us some more skills
on how to defend ourselves,
instead of...
like, not boxing.
For example, if...
someone tries to choke me,
hit me, or...
I mean, I think what really helps
is that you feel, um...
more powerful, or something,
when you feel physically stronger.
And this helps, for sure.
I mean, even your
posture gets better, you know?
So people are not
coming at you so stupid.
So let's come again into the basic
stance, that we talked about before.
So this is what a jab is.
You're stepping, because you're
leaning your way into the punch.
And what you also want to do,
you want to exhale on the punch,
then you have
much more power, right?
[Exhales sharply
[All exhaling sharply]
Fatima?
[Distant knock repeats]
[Knocking continues]
[Chatter in Arabic]
[Muffled voice in Arabic]
Come here.
[Sarah] What?
[Knocking]
-
Come to the door.
- Hello?
[Woman, in Arabic]
Who is it?
[Knocking]
Look for the key to open the door.
Do you need help?
[Woman, in Arabic]
Can you
help me open the door?
[Handle rattles]
The door is locked.
I cannot open.
Please, open the door.
Who are you?
I will get someone.
[Abdul] Sarah?
[Lights click]
Listen, as we said...
upstairs...
Private quarters for my sisters.
[Sarah] Yeah, but sorry,
what am I supposed to do?
I mean, I dunno, somebody was...
It honestly sounded to me,
like someone was calling for my help,
to be honest.
So, somebody calling for help?
I dunno, I mean
there was somebody behind the door.
That's my sisters.
They're playing with you, you know?
I think you know them by now.
They're a bit, especially Nour,
can be a bit of a troublemaker.
Nothing you should worry about,
I'm telling you it's my sisters,
they're playing with you,
they're a bit of troublemakers.
But it's all good.
It's all good.
- It's all good. It's all good.
- I mean, yeah, they're weird.
[Inhales] Take a deep breath.
[Chuckles]
Listen,
this is how we do things here.
When my parents typically travel,
it gets crazy at the house.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
What does she want?
Why all the questions?
She noses around.
What's she want from Fatima?
But you're good, yeah?
The electricity,
it's stopped or what?
The electricity did stop, yeah.
Probably a neighbourhood thing.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
I should
tell your father. Then we'll see.
What?
Why are you so soft with her?
I'll tell your Dad.
Let's see what he does.
Why you up with girls?
- Yeah, I mean--
- [Ammar, in English] Don't be so close.
[Ammar switches to Arabic]
Man up, you can't always be soft!
What do you mean?
Nothing.
I think the driver is here.
He is ready to take you
back to the hotel.
[Abdul] Do you know what time
you have to be here tomorrow?
I think we said ten.
- Ten?
- Yeah.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
When will the driver get her?
Let her leave.
[Abdul, in English] Okay, great.
So, I'll see you tomorrow?
[Commentator]
Look
at this side-choke again.
[Indistinct shouting on TV]
Bloody and beaten on the floor,
is Belina Dalista.
A dominant third round,
potentially ten-eight here.
Again, trying to
posture up to her feet.
More elbows,
more shots now on the Brazilian.
She holds her down,
trying for the rear-choke for this...
[Glass clinks]
You know you are the last guest?
- I am?
- Yeah.
Let's do something soon.
I'm sorry, but,
I don't have the time, to...
- Let's do vodka shots.
- [Laughs]
No, it's...
not allowed to drink when I work.
Yeah, but you are...
finishing now, no?
- I'm the last client.
- Yes, but there's a camera there...
- I cannot--
- Okay, you know what?
I buy this bottle,
I take it out.
I meet in front of the hotel,
we drink it there.
Are you not allowed
to drink on the street?
[Chuckles] I'm sorry,
but it's not allowed.
- It's not allowed.
- I buy it, I buy it.
I buy it now,
and then we take it with us.
Okay, maybe you
can take it to your room?
First...
[They laugh]
That's a great idea.
We go too my room,
we have a couple of shots there.
- No...
- 'Cause there is no camera there, no?
- No, no.
- I looked, there is no camera there.
No, it's not allowed.
[Laughs] It's not a good idea.
We watch a movie together,
don't worry.
Come on.
I'm sorry,
but I don't have the time 'about' that.
For that.
Maybe you're right.
I have to work tomorrow, you know?
Yes, you have work.
You have a lot for tomorrow?
I mean, I wanna train the girls.
Tomorrow, I really wanna kick their ass.
Morning.
- Morning.
- Good morning.
[Velcro scratches]
Fatima, you're gonna join us?
Yeah, I'm training but just,
be careful, because...
the Botox was really expensive.
Just don't hit me in the face.
What happened to your face?
[Fatima] I made Botox,
and filler for my lips.
It will heal in a minute.
But this is what happens
after I do it.
[Sarah] Ah, but, it looks painful.
It must hurt.
Yeah, but it's worth it.
- [Sarah] Ah, yeah?
- Mm-hmm.
But your lips
were so nice before.
[Fatima] Thank you, but I mean,
I might like them more now.
I mean, it's really good.
I like this--
[Sarah] I mean, no, it really
looks like you got punched in the face.
No, I just like this one more.
- [Thud]
- Okay, let's start.
We go right into it.
Um... [taps gloves]
You are gonna give me, like,
100 taps to each other's glove.
Like this. Yeah.
100 of these,
let's see where we are.
Otherwise you just do
a second round until I tell you.
One, two, three... go.
So, you did yesterday...
We talked about,
this is the basic stance.
And then, a one, is just a jab.
It's just a straight punch
from the left.
So, just try to hit
right into my pad.
Again.
Yeah, and now you don't want to...
lean out there,
and stay there for half an hour,
but you want to go "Pow!".
Make it short and spicy.
Okay.
Again.
Yes, and, you want
to keep the arms up, right?
So, let's go again.
Yes, good,
keep them up. Again.
Keep them up.
Keep them up.
Like you did in the beginning.
[Tapping continues]
Again.
Arms should be up. Arms--
[Fatima laughs]
What was that?
Let's go again.
Keep the arms up.
Keep them up.
Again.
Okay. No--
What are you doing?
[Fatima chuckles]
Ha ha.
Okay, let's go again.
One.
- What are you doing?
- Oh!
[Fatima whimpers]
[Fatima cries]
[Shaima, in Arabic]
What's wrong?
[Fatima] I just--
I don't want to train anymore.
What's wrong?
-
What's wrong?
- [Sarah] I'll get you some water.
[In Arabic]
She hit me.
[Clicks tongue]
[Sarah] Come on, I did not hit you hard.
[Fatima] Just go away.
- I didn't hit so hard.
- Stop.
[Door slams]
So, shall we continue?
- [Sarah] Is she really hurt?
- No, I doubt.
She's fine,
she's fine, don't worry.
Yeah, we continue?
[Nour] Sarah?
Can I talk to you for a bit, please?
[Distant soft music]
What?
Can you come here, please?
Um, can I please have your phone?
For fifteen minutes.
- My phone?
- Hmm.
What do you need it for?
Instagram.
[Zipper scratches]
Okay, I give you. But...
Like, 15 minutes max.
You can wait in the TV room, if you want.
[Cheerful music on TV]
I'm sorry, about before.
[Whispers] Nour.
Nour.
Nour.
[Distant music on TV]
Nour.
[She sighs, mumbles]
Nour.
I need my phone back.
[Soft, distant music]
[Woman on video, in Arabic]
Stay away from me.
[Abdul on video]
Aya...
Aya, not today!
Go to your room, Aya.
- [Commotion, thudding]
-
Stop being difficult.
Enough!
- [Aya]
I don't want to!
- [Slapping]
- [Abdul]
Aya!
- [Fatima shouts]
You're hurting her!
- [Abdul]
Enough, focus on me!
- [Fatima]
You're hurting her!
[Argument continues on video;
Aya crying]
[Abdul]
Stop it! It's enough!
[Nour, in English]
This is
my fourth sister, Aya.
She's the oldest one,
not Shaima.
You haven't met her yet,
and you won't meet her.
She's locked up in her room,
she can't go to the kitchen.
She is being punished every single day
and living this life.
And we can't do anything about it.
[Ammar]
Shaima!
I'm so sorry for taking your phone.
There are a lot of things
I want to explain to you.
[Thudding]
- [Nour breathes shakily]
- [Ammar]
Nour?
[Sarah inhales deeply]
[Treadmill whirs]
[Engine revs]
Sarah,
Abdul wants you office?
I don't want to train with the girls.
Come.
[Birds chirp outside]
Sarah, how are you?
Please, grab a seat.
[He clears his throat]
Can I get you anything to drink?
Water, coffee?
- No, no, I'm fine.
- Tea?
Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm sure.
Okay.
So, I dunno...
how we're gonna do this.
Listen...
I'm sure you do have questions.
Actually, I do
have a lot of questions.
I mean, uh, that...
maybe you wanna tell me,
what's been going on at the house?
I'm sure you have questions.
I mean you know that
I was up there, right?
You know that I saw the room?
Listen,
it's more complicated than you think.
We're a normal,
or at least we used to be...
a normal family.
I have a fourth sister called Aya,
and Aya...
was the happiest kid you'll meet.
Things were great.
Until one day,
she got diagnosed with schizophrenia,
and things started
spiraling out of control for her.
She got sick,
and it's just been a very...
very tough mental health journey for her,
for me, and for my family,
dealing with it,
and seeing her in that state, but...
Yeah.
And you decided
to tie her down on the bed?
Listen, I don't know if you're aware--
And beat up the other sisters?
[Abdul] No-one's beating anyone up
in this house, okay?
She's... schizophrenic.
She's had several episodes
where she was gonna hurt herself,
hurt the family,
hurt her sisters...
So what we are doing upstairs
is for her best...
for my sisters' best.
[Sarah] It looks like a
torture chamber to me.
That's what it looked like to you.
- Yeah, it did.
- Yeah, but I love my sisters so much
and what we are doing for her
is for her best, and for my sisters' best.
- Ah, okay.
- Yeah, so...
Yeah, well...
I dunno. Okay.
We have to put proper measures
in the house to protect her.
- Right.
- But anyways, Sarah, honestly...
[Phone buzzes]
I need to get this.
Okay.
[Abdul, in Arabic]
Hello, Dad.
Of course.
[TV chatter;
Birds chirping outside]
I got your message.
Hmm?
I mean, I got your mail.
Let's not talk about this here.
Can you get a new phone?
[Emotional music]
You still have that?
[Lights click;
TV clicks off]
[Woman] Come on guys.
Bedtime.
Eva, shame on you.
Fatima's still praying.
- [In Arabic]
It's alright.
- [In Arabic]
Go on, finish.
It's OK.
[Nour]
Don't be silly.
Finish your prayers.
Don't be silly.
C'mon.
Aya?
[Eva] Aya, why are you here?
Go to your room.
[In Arabic]
Aya, how did you get out?
Aya, what's wrong?
Let's go upstairs.
Aya, go in your room,
I give you your medicine.
[Eva] It's bedtime.
[Shaima] Aya?
[Eva] Aya?
Let's go back up.
Before they come.
Nour, did you let her out?
-
No.
-
Don't lie!
I didn't, leave me alone!
Stop blaming me.
For God's sake!
I can't take this anymore!
[Nour]
I didn't let her out, OK?
Stop blaming me for everything!
- [Eva] Where you going?
- What's going on?
Aya!
[Footsteps recede,
distant shouting]
[Nour]
Shaima!
That's dangerous!
[Shaima]
Nour, stay away!
-
Aya, don't!
-
Abdul!
Abdul!
[All shriek]
[Shrieking, sobbing]
[Abdul shouting]
[Line rings]
[Line rings]
[Line rings]
[Line rings]
[Beeps]
Hello?
Sarah?
[In German] Hi.
I can't see you.
What's up? Have you
been crying?
[Voice breaks]
You're breaking up.
Sarah, your screen...
[Voice breaks]
[Indistinct speech]
You're breaking up.
[Sarah breathes shakily]
Are you OK?
Not really.
Sarah, your... video's gone.
-
Can you hear...
- [Beeps off]
The Princess of the Desert.
You were supposed to make
a Princess of the Desert.
[Jay] You want make it for now?
Yes.
Yes, I asked somebody
five-million-years ago, I want it now.
- Please, be quiet. They're looking.
- No, no, but I'm...
- I was already very quiet,
- Please be quiet
but I'm not getting
my fucking cocktail.
[Jay sighs]
I'm gonna tip you a big, fat, dime.
- Thank you.
- Don't fuck it up, now.
- Can I have the cocktail?
- Yes, sure.
Just one minute.
What are you doing
with your phone?
This is not making me a cocktail
with your phone.
- Are you sexting?
- No.
- Hello.
- But, why--
[Sarah laughs]
Let's go. Come.
I'm sorry,
is this a proper introduction?
Let's go.
- Wait, wait, wait.
- We have to go.
Wait, wait wait,
I'm in the middle of an order.
No, no.
- Sir, I'm in the middle of an order...
- That's okay.
- That's rude.
- Easy Sarah, be quiet.
- Please.
- Let's go.
I'm holding no cocktail in my hand.
Let go now. Okay?
- Calm down.
- I'm calm, I'm calm.
- You're not calm.
- Come please, with me.
I'll take my bag. Relax.
Take your bag and go.
- Okay. Yes.
- Come. We go, please.
Fuck you, Jay.
[Indistinct chatter, laughter]
Sorry.
- Club?
- Club. Yes.
[Low hum]
[Muffled dance music]
[Music volume slowly rising]
[Loud dance music and chatter]
[Dance music continues]
Hey Sarah.
Um... So Aya died.
[Nour continues on video]
We had this plan, and...
We have this plan to run away, and...
The day after tomorrow, um...
Fatima, Shaima and I will
go to the mall with our bodyguard,
and during the noon prayer,
we tell him
that we want to pray, so...
when he goes to the male prayer room,
we will come to the female restroom.
And we will meet you there.
We will tell you
where to get close to us.
[Sarah retches]
And we want you
to rent a car as well.
[Retches]
We really need your help.
It's the only choice we have.
[Sarah sighs]
Please tell us if you're in or not.
[Sarah grunts]
[Sighs]
[Moans]
[Gurgles]
[Sighs]
[Burps]
[Moans]
[Background chatter]
[Call to prayer starts, over speakers]
[Sighs] I'm glad you're here.
[Nour, in Arabic]
Hurry up, get dressed.
[Shaima]
What is this shit?
[Nour]
Just put it on!
[Nour] Did you get some glasses as well?
- [Sarah] Yes.
- Okay. Good.
[In Arabic]
Happy with these clothes?
[In Arabic]
Shaima, not now. Get dressed.
If we're caught,
I'm blaming you.
[Prayer continues over speakers]
Get dressed.
Will you be happy
if we're caught?
This isn't the time.
Let's go.
Fatima, hurry!
What's your problem?
[Shaima]
What if he
leaves the prayer room?
What'll you do with your sister?
-
Do you hear yourself?
-
Yeah, I do.
What if we get caught?
Sweetie...
your hesitation is endangering us.
You'll ruin our plan.
Nour, there are many ways to run away.
Shaima, this is the only way.
You can get married.
I don't want to!
[Nour]
Our parents don't care about us.
[Shaima]
It's no!
- [Nour]
Dad is a criminal.
-
No!
Shaima, there's no time. C'mon.
I won't.
What's your problem?
-
Don't touch me!
-
I refuse!
I'm trying to make you understand.
[Shaima]
Don't push!
[Nour]
I'm trying to get through to you!
We have no time, get it?
If we get caught, I'm blaming you!
[Fatima]
Enough, Shaima!
Enough, Nour!
When what happened to Aya
happens to you, don't blame me.
We won't end up like Aya.
She was ill.
You can't say yes, then no!
You saw what happened to Aya!
Is this a life we're living?
-
Don't say we've no choice.
-
OK, let's go.
-
This is our only chance.
-
Fine.
Either take it or stay here alone!
OK, let's go.
[Sarah] Let's go.
Okay, go.
Alright.
All the way down.
- Here?
- To the right.
- Where?
- The silver car, there.
Left.
There.
Shit.
- Oh, God.
- Shit.
[Man]
Stop, no one leaves.
[Nour] Sorry, just
drive. Go left. Just drive.
- Stop. Stop.
- [Knock on window]
- Open the door. Open the door.
- Lock the doors.
[Shaima] Sarah, open the door.
Please, open the door.
[Man]
Get out! You'll only make it worse!
[Shaima] Open the door.
[Nour] Sarah they can't hurt us.
They work for us.
[Shaima] Sarah, listen to me.
They're going to harm us.
- [In Arabic] They won't hurt us!
- [In Arabic] This is your fault!
It's all your fault!
- [Fatima] Open the door.
- [Man]
Open the door now!
Sarah.
[Fatima] Sarah, please.
Open the door.
[Nour] Just drive.
[Man]
Don't make things worse!
-
Open up!
- [Tapping window]
This is all your fault.
Sarah, please open the door.
Please open the door.
[Fatima]
Nour, it's enough!
[Man knocks]
Come on.
Scare them.
[Gunshot, they shriek]
[Lock clicks]
[Door opens]
[Man]
Get out! Out!
[Sobbing]
C'mon, get out!
Come with me.
[Nour]
Get the fuck off me!
[Nour crying]
[Door shuts]
[Muffled crying]
[Knocks]
[Man] You can go home, now.
Move it!
Move.
[Engine revs, recedes]
[Wind blows]
[Cellphone rings]
[Coffee burbles]
[Soft music on background]
[In German] Make sure
you're not holding back.
Your arm should be
fully extended.
[Indistinct chatter]
Don't choke.
Last five.
Five...
Four. Remember, defense.
Three.
Two.
We always watched videos of you
and looked at photos.
Are you happy Auntie Sarah's back?
We missed her, huh?
- Right.
- We're so happy she's back!
- Think she remembers me?
- Of course.
- [Baby babbles]
- Yes, that's right!
- I bet.
- You remember her, right?
But maybe she can visit more often...
your Auntie Sarah.
You have to be careful she doesn't drown.
Because kids can drown very quickly.
In ten seconds. And when they drown,
they don't make a sound.
It's nothing dramatic.
Not dramatic?
But then we could sleep in again,
eat in peace...
It's probably easier to kill a kid,
- [Sister chuckles]
- than to look after it.
Y'know?
- But...
- I can help you.
I can do it.
I have more distance.
Exactly,
'cause how would you feel after?
I didn't seen her in a long time.
We don't know each other that well.
I could do it for you easy.
- For free.
- She can hear you, y'know.
- Quick and easy.
- Stop it!
I wouldn't shed a tear.
Maybe tomorrow.
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow.
What'd be your alibi?
[Sister laughs]
I'd cover for you.
- You know I would.
- OK, cool.
[Water splashes softly]
[Rock music on speakers]
[Woman 1] From the side
it looks a bit stumpy.
And besides...
[Woman 2] But what bothers you about it?
It's crooked. It goes...
- Yeah, but...
- Touch it, there's a crook.
- Do you feel it?
- Yeah, but...
[Woman 1] I don't want
to keep obsessing about it.
- It costs 8,000 euros.
- [Woman 2] Seriously?
I've researched it
and watched videos of operations.
I'm a bit scared.
But do they put you under?
- I think so.
- Really?
[Woman 2] I'd only do it
if they put me under.
I couldn't...
There is some risk.
[Song changes: Powerful]
[Conversation continues, indistinct]
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on
Come on, come on
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na-na
Feels so good being bad
There's no way I'm turning back
Now the pain is my pleasure
Nothing can measure
Love is great, love is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling
leaves me wanting more
'Cause I may be bad,
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care,
I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
I may be bad,
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care,
I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Come on, come on, come on

[Car engine continues rumbling]
[Dance music starts]
[Music ends]
[Muffled shouting]
[Commentators speaking, muffled]
[Voices becoming clearer]
[Commentator, male voice]
I just
cannot believe what we're seeing here.
Sarah Reisinger looks ordinary once again,
[Commentator 2, male voice]
Could
be as well, the tail end of the career,
the body doesn't take as much
punishment, you don't recover as much,
and the young guns
have youth on their side.
[Commentator 1]
Nobody
saw this coming, Dean.
Dominance here,
Knee-On-Belly from Mandy Bhm.
[Commentator 2]
This is devastating,
if she can rise up
she can land some decisive shots.
[Commentator 1]
Reisinger
looks so frustrated, Dean.
Her legacy, her fame,
everything she fought for,
and this could very well
be the end of her career.
[Commentator 2]
Bhm looking
for the Rear Naked Choke,
this is a contortion and a squeeze.
-
There's the tap!
-
There's the tap.
[Commentator 1]
An incredible performance here.
- [Applause, cheerful music over speakers]
- Well, there you have it folks.
So surprising, the experience
should have kicked in and saved her.
She seemed like the last time
we see Sarah in the cage.
[Refrigerator hum]
MOON
[Muffled music, distant]
[Rock music over stereo]
[In German] Yeah.
Exhale hard.
[Puffing]
[Sarah] Too slow.
Extend your arm.
[Sara switches to English]
OK, shake up the arms.
[Back to German] And now, real fast...
- [They laugh]
- Left, right.
Left, right.
[Boxer 1, in German] My glove
hurts me when I hit.
- Where does it hurt?
- Here in front.
Squeeze it, it's like really hard.
We're not hitting that hard.
Make sure you hit the pad
with this part of your fist.
Arms up.
- Do I look cool?
- [Boxer 2] Sort of.
You have to learn that if you extend,
you have to come back to your chin.
Quick and explosive!
[Whooshes] Ok.
Punch just once.
- Ow.
- And right back to your chin.
Again.
Nice and easy.
I hold it up and you lean in.
[Boxer 1] Stop, you're too intense.
You can't punch me that hard.
Hm?
[Boxer 1] You can't
come into my safe zone.
- I feel really uncomfortable.
- [Boxer 2 speaks indistinctly]
No, I'm just showing
you it has to be fast.
You can't waste time.
[To Boxer 2] Did you see that?
She punched me.
[Woman, in German] I'm worried
about you supporting yourself.
You need to organize your life, y'know?
So far you only have
one and a half clients.
[Sarah, in German] I just
started, it takes time.
What's your plan for the future?
How long will it take?
Do you have a business plan?
Sorry, you don't know the field.
I mean, it's your business, right?
- I don't need a...
- Sarah! Sarah!
Can you put your mug on the coaster?
It's not there for decoration.
- Are you serious?
- Yeah!
[Woman] That's white wood.
It's white wood.
The coffee ring will...
I bet the baby's puked on it.
Are you joking?
Use a coaster.
You put it on the wood again.
I don't get you.
This is my home.
Every time, you don't care.
Is it 'cause you're breastfeeding?
- Seriously?
- [Sarah laughs]
It's not because of hormones.
- What's your problem?
- You're a pain!
[Woman] It's always the same.
She has to be changed.
[Man] I'll do it.
[Distant bell tolls]
[Clattering]
[Coffee burbles]
As you see, I've had a pretty
long life already in the martial arts.
And to be honest, it, um...
this job, it kind of
fits into my life perfectly.
Because now I'm at this point,
I really did more than 20 years of
martial arts, or something like that.
Um, and, I'm really excited
to share this with other people.
And, I did it all you know?
I did the floor, I did the striking.
I did like Judo, I did Kickboxing,
I did Muay Thai...
I mean, you call it.
So I'm really excited
to hand this on to other people,
and of course I'd be super excited
to give this to the girls, especially.
Excellent, I mean,
listen, my sisters are,
I would say they're relatively fit.
We have instructors
and fitness trainers coming in
throughout the year,
all the time,
so it's not like they've
never trained before.
And then it might be something
that's different and exciting.
It's something that's become
very trendy in the region lately.
- So... yes.
- Ah, brilliant.
I didn't know that it's really well known.
It is, very recently,
has become something that's hot.
And I'm glad that my sisters
are excited about something
Oh, cool.
and I just want to make sure that I get
them something that not only is fitness
but it's at least something
that they get excited about.
In terms of logistics
and timelines, Sarah,
you mentioned that you're flexible
over the next month or so,
to come over here for
a few months and train my sisters.
Absolutely, yes, yes.
I'm actually very flexible
at the moment, so...
if you want me to start training
them tomorrow I could actually do that.
[Chuckles]
Excellent, excellent,
great great great.
You know, I've talked to a
lot of instructors and trainers
it seems like your timeline works the best
and it works for us.
So that's great news.
And, um, just expect communication
from me over the next few days,
so that we can talk
more about details, and...
nice to meet you, Sarah.
Yeah, very nice
to meet you too. [Chuckles]
- [Loud rock music on stereo]
- [Woman, in German] Finally, here we go.
[He laughs, whistles]
- You're a mind-reader.
- Yeah!
Can you smoke outside?
It stinks enough in here already.
[Woman] Leave the window open overnight.
No...
[They chuckle]
I want to start training again.
I'm so out of shape.
You look great and crazy hot.
- [Sarah] Yeah, right.
- Compared to us!
- My belly's as fat as yours.
- Fuck you.
As whose?
Fuck you.
As fat as his, not yours!
[Sarah] I got this great job offer.
I'm going to Jordan to train some girls.
- [Man] Where?
- Jordan.
Seriously?
"Send $5000 to a prince
and you'll inherit his estate"?
And she answers!
"I got a job offer!"
The super-rich have
trainers in their villas
with their own gyms
in their basement, y'know.
No way!
[Man] From the Austrian sticks to Jordan!
MMA is super...
super popular in Jordan.
Do you have to wear a hijab?
If you arrive there not wearing one,
they'll stone you, drag you
through the streets. No, really.
Did you buy a scarf?
[Woman 2] Your grandma's
won't match your shorts.
They won't make me wear a hijab.
- [Man] You'll wear it by choice.
- [Woman 2] Like all the women!
Sure, voluntarily! Of course!
[Woman 1] But would you wear one,
if they said you had to?
I dunno, if it looks good...
It's not just a piece of fabric.
[Woman 2] Don't make it so complicated.
You can make it your brand.
Y'know like wrestlers...
Like Mexican wrestlers
with their masks.
You show up in a hijab and burka
and crush them all.
"I'm an oppressed woman
and I'll fuck everyone up."
[He imitates punches]
[Cheerful, loud pop music]
- [Woman 1] Now you have to.
- Oh god!
[Wind blows]
[Chill ambient music]
[AC hums]
[Shutter clicks]
[Distant call to prayer]
[Soft music muffles call to prayer]
Sorry, how long are we gonna ride?
How long is the way to the house?
Do you speak English?
[Window whirs]
[Men speaking Arabic indistinctly]
[Birds and insects chirp]
Woah. [Chuckles]
[Gate clatters]
How are you?
- We finally meet. How's it going?
- Yeah.
- Good.
- Welcome to our home.
- It's an amazing house.
- And our house.
Do it in person.
This is Ammar.
Our father's personal assistant.
- Nice to meet you.
- How was your flight?
Great, actually. Yeah.
[Brother] You guys will be working
closely together over the next few days.
- [Sarah] Okay.
- Please come to my office.
We're just going to do
a few housekeeping things.
- I've been to Austria, once in my life.
- [Sarah] Really?
Yeah, when I was seven years old.
With my family.
I don't remember much,
but I do remember that...
that cake that you guys have,
that chocolate cake.
- The Sachertorte?
- Yes.
I don't know, it's like...
It's a chocolate...
whatever.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- It tastes better.
We have Mansaf here.
- The traditional dish of--
- Ah, okay. I need to have that.
Yeah, you will. I'm sure that
you will get the chance to do that.
- How's the hotel by the way?
- Great.
- Yeah? Very good?
- Really nice, yeah.
Are you.. is it comfortable?
Did they give you a good room?
I think so. I mean they told me
it was an upgrade, or something like that.
I'm on the 28th floor,
I'm having a great view.
- Awesome.
- I went to the pool already.
- Perfect.
- It was nice.
By the way, everything in the hotel
in terms of food, beverages...
Minibar stuff, it's all covered.
- [Sarah] Oh cool.
- Yeah.
I'll finish a few things...
[In Arabic]
Do you know where the
contracts and NDAs are?
Here they are.
Come, take a look at them.
Some are in Arabic,
some in English.
[In Arabic]
I'll fix them.
[Switches to English] Just because
there are a few house rules that we have,
- That we need to make sure that...
- One.
[Brother] It's just basically saying that,
anything that you see,
anything that you hear,
you know, in the house,
stays within the walls of the house.
No social media,
no pictures taken inside the house.
[Ammar]
Asim
... Name.
This is regular procedure, it's for
anyone that works for us, typically.
They have to sign this paper.
- Okay.
- [Brother] Nothing to worry about.
Very regular procedure.
[Brother and Sarah chuckle]
Wait, say again, sorry?
[Brother] The NDA.
It's something that we sign
with everyone that works in the house.
No social media, no pictures,
we just like to keep things... private.
And I hope that's not
an inconvenience to you.
No.
[Brother] Did you have your water?
- Yes, yes.
- Cool.
Now...
we're gonna go and meet my sisters.
- Great.
- Awesome.
So maybe shake out the legs first,
shake out the arms first.
And then we just start with
big circles of the shoulders, to the back.
Leave it for five... four...
three... two... one.
Change direction for five...
four...
three... two...
one.
And stick the feet together.
We just make circles with the knees.
Five... four...
three... two... one.
Change direction.
Five... four...
three... two... one.
Nice, shake out the legs.
We are going for
some jumping jacks.
You all know
what jumping jacks are?
- Yeah.
- Let's do it.
Ten... nine...
eight... seven...
six... five... four...
three... two... one.
And immediately to high knees,
that's a sprint with high knees.
We go for ten...
nine... eight... seven...
Stay compact, six...
five... four...
Try to touch my hands.
Three... two... and one.
Back to jumping jacks.
Two more rounds.
Ten... nine... eight...
- [In Arabic]
Come on!
- Seven...
-
Shut up!
- Six... five... four.
Three... two... one.
High knees.
High knees.
- [Sister 1] Can we take a break...
- Nice.
Between sets?
- [Sister 2] I hope so.
- High knees, and...
last five, yes.
Three... two... and one.
Nice, relax.
Well done, good.
[All breathing heavily]
So catch your breath,
maybe one inhale.
One exhale, and okay.
So next,
I'm going to face the wall,
and you are all
going to face into my direction,
and you see because you're basically
going to watch and copy what I'm doing.
In the beginning this is maybe
going to be a little bit difficult
for you to coordinate, but...
- We do this every day--
- I think I'm done for today.
[Sister 2] I'll, uh... complete tomorrow.
What?
[Sister 2] I'm not feeling well,
I'm done for today.
I'm feeling pain.
- So I'll--
- Pain? Where?
Here.
[Sister 3, in Arabic]
Do you want some medicine?
- No.
- [Sarah] What kind of pain?
I don't know.
I'm just, I'm not feeling it.
- [Sarah] From the pain?
- Not feeling well.
Yeah, so tomorrow.
Ok?
[Sister 1, in Arabic]
Drink some water.
No.
-
Shaima, stay!
-
No.
-
You can't do this.
-
No.
But we are not even
at the beginning of the warm-up.
[Shaima] I know,
but we're still beginners.
Yes, I know,
but you are strong girls.
I don't want to under-challenge you,
do you understand?
You want to have
a little bit of a benefit.
It's not that this is gonna be
just nice from beginning to end.
[Shaima] Yeah, yeah, I'm strong,
but I'm not in the mood today.
So I'll see you tomorrow.
[Sister 1, in Arabic]
This isn't the time.
Bye, guys. [In Arabic]
Stop,
I don't want to do it!
- Bye Sarah.
- I'll go check.
'Cause you know, tell her,
that we can adjust the exercise,
like, I can...
I can work with her.
[Sister 3] Yeah, just give me
five minutes, I'll try to convince her.
[She sighs]
She's so stubborn and won't hear.
[Sarah] Me first, I want to continue.
[Sister 3] Five minutes, promise.
Shaima!
[Sarah] What's the problem?
It's okay.
[Sarah] She doesn't like it?
No, she likes it, of course.
- I'm just gonna go.
- You don't wanna continue?
No, it's okay, it's fine.
We'll do it all together.
Bye-bye.
[Door opens, footsteps recede]
[Door shuts]
[She chuckles, speaks indistinctly]
So, I'll go.
[Door opens, closes]
[Suspenseful, emotional music on TV]
[Sarah] How do you feel?
I didn't train, for a while.
So I think, when I did,
I had some pain.
She's a drama queen.
You'll get used to it.
Yeah, but it's just nice to, uh...
Stay with it, you know?
And not give up.
[Man speaks indistinctly on TV]
[Sarah] What else
are you gonna do today?
Nothing, I'll just eat lunch
and then... chill.
[Sister 1] I do my make-up.
I really like matching my outfit
with my make-up every day.
[Sarah] And you go to school, or...?
We're home schooled.
So teachers come here.
- [Sarah] Ah really?
- Yeah. Mm-hm.
And where are your parents actually?
[Shaima] They live in Qatar.
They live, actually, everywhere.
So they travel a lot.
I think we have a house in every country.
[TV chatter continues]
[Emotional music on TV]
And do you go out a lot, in Amman?
- [Shaima] Not really.
- No.
Abdul told me
there are some great clubs here.
[Shaima] Yeah, clubs.
For Abdul. Not us.
What, you don't like dancing?
- Yeah, we do.
- [Sister 1] We do.
Who doesn't like dancing?
[Uptempo music plays on TV]
[Woman sings]
What's the wi-fi here?
[Shaima] There is no wi-fi here.
You don't have the password?
- No.
- Hm-hm.
We don't have wi-fi.
[Sarah] What seriously?
How do you guys survive?
[Shaima] We're used to it now.
Kind of.
[TV chatter]
Madam, your driver is here.
He wait outside.
[Sarah] So I'll see you... tomorrow?
- Yeah.
- At ten?
Yeah.
[Breathing slowly]
[Soft background music and chatter]
His real name is Penguin.
- No.
- Yes, I know that.
No.
- Like the animal?
- Yes, he is animal actually.
Not me. That's you.
[Server] You can see,
he don't have a neck.
I don't know, I see a neck.
Yeah, I see a neck.
[Server] No, it's small like...
- It's a bit short, yeah.
- Yes, it's short neck.
It's my name, it's nickname.
It's mine. It's Feather.
Father of Feather.
- Ah. Feather? Father?
- Yes.
[Both] Father of Feather.
Father of the Feather?
- I think it's cute.
- [Server] It's cute?
- Yeah.
- I like it.
Father of the Feather?
Yeah, I would love to be called that.
[Server] Mr Jess, did you like his name?
- Say that again?
- [Feather] Father of Feather.
- I think it's beautiful.
- Yeah, right?
I think it's... it's beautiful.
Definitely more beautiful than Jay.
[Man seating] Jay, can we get
another, uh, beer or two over here?
- Sure, with my pleasure, Mr Jesse.
- Thank you, appreciate it.
And about your friend, you...?
- [Man 2 seating] I'm fine.
- You're fine. Okay.
[Jay] Would you like to drink it here?
At the bar?
What is she having?
- [Jay] A local beer.
- A local beer... You know what?
Yeah, let's get
two local beers please.
- [Jay] With my pleasure.
- Are you enjoying it?
- Me?
- Yeah.
Good?
- Yeah, it's good.
- I'm Jesse by the way.
- Hi.
- What's your name?
- It's Sarah.
- Nice to met you Sarah,
that's a very pretty name.
I, uh, my grandmother's name was Sarah.
It's a beautiful name.
Mind if I sit?
So, do you know any Arabic?
Do you know how
to say "hello", for example?
Um...
I dunno,
salam aleikum or something?
- [Jesse] Exactly. Bingo.
- Yes.
[Jesse] You sound like a natural.
- She's good, she's good.
- [Jay] She's good.
[Jesse] Do you know how to say, maybe...
- What about, uh...
- [Jay] Thank you?
Yeah, "thank you".
- Shukran.
- [Sarah] Shukran.
Yeah, I learnt it.
[Jesse] She's better than me already.
I come here, every single night.
Almost every single night,
Jay teaches me a new word.
[Jay] Yes, he's coming...
[Jesse] So your accent is
already better than mine.
Thank you.
[Call rings]
[Chimes]
- [Woman over phone]
Sarah?
- Hi.
- [In German] What?
-
What's wrong? [Sighs]
I just wanted to talk.
It's 11 pm. Everyone here is asleep.
Huh? Since when do you go to bed so early?
Since we have a child.
- Sorry.
-
Is something wrong?
No, I just wanted to talk.
OK. Do you need anything?
If you're so stressed, never mind.
-
I'm not stressed, I'm tired.
- Fine.
Sorry.
Well, if it's important... OK?
Never mind. We'll talk tomorrow.
[Phone chimes]
Ciao.
[Pops]
[Phone clatters]
[Cellphone rings]
Hello, Abdul.
I'm good, thank you.
What do you mean,
instead of training?
Okay. Okay.
Uh, how do I get there?
To the mall?
Okay.
Thank you.
- Hey.
- Hi, how are you?
- Hi.
- Hi.
Hey.
[Door shuts]
Let's go.
[Inaudible;
Background chatter]
[In Arabic]
The mall's empty today.
[Man, in Arabic]
Yeah, it's true.
[Call to prayer over mall speakers]
- [Sister 3]
Excuse me?
- [Man]
Yes?
Do you know where the prayer rooms are?
You want to pray? Great!
-
An example for my sisters.
-
You honor your family.
[Man]
The prayer rooms are downstairs.
[Sister 3]
Can you take us?
- [Man]
Sure.
- [Sister 3]
Good, you lead the way.
[Sister 3]
Come on, let's go.
Um, there's 5GB, 10GB...
20GB.
How long are you staying here?
I'm here for a month.
But I don't need to do any calls,
I just want to be online, you know?
Then 20GB would be best.
[Sister 1, in Arabic]
Come look at this bag.
Sarah, is this nice?
You want my, you want my opinion?
- Honest opinion.
- [Sarah chuckles]
I really don't have a sense of...
- Fashion?
- that kind of fashion.
I don't know,
I think you can find something better.
- It's a bit, uh...
- Old?
Yeah, like you're
a 60-year-old or something.
[Sisters chatter]
Sarah?
Can I use your phone for a bit?
We're not allowed
to have our phones with us.
Try it, because I'm not sure
the internet works over here.
Oh.
I think it's this...
Can I check
my Instagram real quick?
- Of course.
- Okay.
[Sister 1] Sarah, do you like this one?
I don't know.
[Shaima] You asked us three times,
when we told you it's not nice.
It's too childish.
Too pink.
[Sarah] I don't know.
But it's fine, if you want it, get it.
[Sarah] You need to try it, but I think
it's really, um... balloon-ey, somehow.
- [Sister 1] Hm.
- [Shaima] Yeah.
[Sister 1] Did you like the mall?
The mall? I mean it's...
- I don't know, I mean it's like a--
- [Sister 3] Sarah...
Thank you for letting me
use your phone. Thank you.
I'm done now.
- You're welcome.
- Buying anything?
What are you doing after?
Can you come over?
If you want.
[Sarah] What color is it?
It's blue,
because you're wearing blue.
Oh my god!
This is really nice.
Okay, make-up is done.
- Should I...
- No.
You want me to open it?
- No, I'll open it. Wait.
- No.
Because, I have really dry hair.
It's a dread lock back there.
[Chuckles] It's okay, it's okay.
'Cause you know I would need to wash it,
and I would need to brush it,
And I would probably, even,
need to put something in it
so that it looks nice.
Uh, I never have it open.
Can you look at me?
Ah, no.
[Sarah laughs]
Maybe I'll do this.
Oh my god,
you look like a princess.
No, I don't believe you.
- No I don't.
- You do! With this hairstyle.
Sure.
- Ow! Should I not do it?
- No, I'll do it.
Can I have my rubber band back?
That's nice.
I just want to make a tail again.
Just a normal one.
I can do it myself.
- No, no. I'll do it for you.
- You give me my hairband.
No, I'll do it for you.
Hey, can you
give me back the hairband.
Yeah, now it's good.
It's around your wrist, come on.
No.
- Where is my hairband?
- What?
- I don't have it.
- Come on.
- Turn around.
- Come on, I don't want to hurt you.
Just give it to me.
Otherwise,
I have to take it myself, I tell you.
Okay, fine,
I'm just gonna take this then.
But wait!
I take your pink band.
I just need something
to keep it together.
Okay, you can go now.
Just go please.
Are you okay?
Hm-hm.
I'm sorry, I mean
I did not wanna be rude or something.
Ah, you can go.
Please go.
Okay, well...
I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
- Hm-hm.
- Don't... [stutters]
I'll see you tomorrow.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
Why are you upstairs?
[Sarah] Hm?
What are you doing upstairs?
[Sarah] Sorry, in English?
[Ammar] No rooms.
Shaima?
Fatima?
Nour?
[Shaima, in Arabic]
What?
She was upstairs!
I told Fatima. She doesn't listen.
[Nour, in Arabic]
What is it?
You know she's not allowed.
[Sarah] She told me to come up
to the room.
We came back and forgot to tell her.
Anyway, it's not our fault.
-
Ask Fatima.
-
I'm asking you!
She asked me to come up...
[Nour]
Shaima and I forgot to tell her.
[Shaima]
No, tell him that I told her.
[Nour]
It's Fatima's fault, she took her.
Deal with her.
She knows the rules.
What's the problem?
[Ammar]
What's with you,
Fatima? Are you crazy?
She's not our only problem.
[Nour switches to English]
Yeah, no worries,
he was just mad about Fatima.
Yeah, no worries.
[Line rings]
Hey, Bea.
[In German] Can you call me back?
I'd like to talk. Ciao!
[Soft background music]
[Jay] How was your day?
Fucked up.
I mean...
No, it's not so tragic but... weird.
Something about you--
I dunno, these girls
are just so fucking weird.
Why?
I shouldn't tell you.
- You look very tired.
- Yes.
- Yes, I see that.
- I mean, it's late.
Yes, it's late.
I wish I could go back home.
It's because of me
that you have to stay?
No, it's not!
But I can see that you are tired.
[Server] So, where do you work?
[Sarah] I work with this
super rich family.
I'm there as a personal trainer,
so I train the girls.
[Server] Wow, where?
Where? No, I mean...
I don't know where,
they always drive me out there.
Somewhere, in the outskirts.
Can I know the name of the family?
Ah, it's such a fucking
hard name for me to remember.
[Jay] It's so difficult,
I know a lot of them.
[Sarah] So, I'm not sure
if I'm saying the right name.
Al Fahadi, or something.
- Al Fahadi?
- Yes.
- You know them?
- Yes.
Everyone here
knows about this family.
[Server] They are very, very famous.
- Really? Famous for what?
- [Jay] Very rich family.
[Server] I heard that they are,
kind of bad.
- I heard that--
- [Sarah] But bad in what way?
They don't care about the people
who are in front of them.
They hurt them, anyway,
in case they want something.
[Server] Is that true?
I don't know, how would I know?
[Server] You work there, you will know.
I have not seen any...
people who had, like,
"mafioso" written on them.
[Server] I heard that
they only care about their business.
I heard one of the girls
has been kidnapped.
[Jay, in Arabic]
That's enough.
- [Server, in Arabic]
It's fine.
-
You asked a lot of questions.
But this sounds
a little bit like, um...
- Netflix.
- [Server laughs]
[Server] It's true,
how you don't know, like--
I mean, a little bit exaggerated.
I don't think it's--
We have to leave, please,
you have to clean the table.
[Sarah] Tell us, what did you say?
You have to clean the table, please.
Thank you.
Thank you, Chanel.
She is... talk too much.
What, do you think they are mafioso?
I don't have idea, of...
[Chuckles nervously]
Yes, good.
Little bit faster.
Nice.
Nice.
Go.
Yes, actually get up.
Fatima, she's not coming today?
No, no. She's not.
She's a bit sick.
She doesn't feel well.
[Shaima] But that's fine.
- [Shaima] Don't worry.
- She's sick?
[Shaima] Yeah.
Okay, so...
Next time I clap,
chest to the floor.
- [Both] Ok.
- Okay, let's do it.
Elbows in.
Go.
Nice, as fast as possible.
Go.
Yeah, try not to think too much,
it's just chest to the floor.
It's like a drop.
Go.
Yes.
And come back up.
No time to lose.
Yes. Go.
Very good.
Go.
Back up, and arms up.
Go.
[Nour exhales sharply]
How much time
did it take you to learn...
all these, uh...
moves, and to learn the form right?
- It's a never ending process.
- [Sisters laugh]
No, but you know,
I did all kinds of different things.
Actually, I came to martial arts
quite late, but, um...
You're going to see
it just takes you a couple of classes,
and you can do something.
Will you give us some more skills
on how to defend ourselves,
instead of...
like, not boxing.
For example, if...
someone tries to choke me,
hit me, or...
I mean, I think what really helps
is that you feel, um...
more powerful, or something,
when you feel physically stronger.
And this helps, for sure.
I mean, even your
posture gets better, you know?
So people are not
coming at you so stupid.
So let's come again into the basic
stance, that we talked about before.
So this is what a jab is.
You're stepping, because you're
leaning your way into the punch.
And what you also want to do,
you want to exhale on the punch,
then you have
much more power, right?
[Exhales sharply
[All exhaling sharply]
Fatima?
[Distant knock repeats]
[Knocking continues]
[Chatter in Arabic]
[Muffled voice in Arabic]
Come here.
[Sarah] What?
[Knocking]
-
Come to the door.
- Hello?
[Woman, in Arabic]
Who is it?
[Knocking]
Look for the key to open the door.
Do you need help?
[Woman, in Arabic]
Can you
help me open the door?
[Handle rattles]
The door is locked.
I cannot open.
Please, open the door.
Who are you?
I will get someone.
[Abdul] Sarah?
[Lights click]
Listen, as we said...
upstairs...
Private quarters for my sisters.
[Sarah] Yeah, but sorry,
what am I supposed to do?
I mean, I dunno, somebody was...
It honestly sounded to me,
like someone was calling for my help,
to be honest.
So, somebody calling for help?
I dunno, I mean
there was somebody behind the door.
That's my sisters.
They're playing with you, you know?
I think you know them by now.
They're a bit, especially Nour,
can be a bit of a troublemaker.
Nothing you should worry about,
I'm telling you it's my sisters,
they're playing with you,
they're a bit of troublemakers.
But it's all good.
It's all good.
- It's all good. It's all good.
- I mean, yeah, they're weird.
[Inhales] Take a deep breath.
[Chuckles]
Listen,
this is how we do things here.
When my parents typically travel,
it gets crazy at the house.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
What does she want?
Why all the questions?
She noses around.
What's she want from Fatima?
But you're good, yeah?
The electricity,
it's stopped or what?
The electricity did stop, yeah.
Probably a neighbourhood thing.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
I should
tell your father. Then we'll see.
What?
Why are you so soft with her?
I'll tell your Dad.
Let's see what he does.
Why you up with girls?
- Yeah, I mean--
- [Ammar, in English] Don't be so close.
[Ammar switches to Arabic]
Man up, you can't always be soft!
What do you mean?
Nothing.
I think the driver is here.
He is ready to take you
back to the hotel.
[Abdul] Do you know what time
you have to be here tomorrow?
I think we said ten.
- Ten?
- Yeah.
[Ammar, in Arabic]
When will the driver get her?
Let her leave.
[Abdul, in English] Okay, great.
So, I'll see you tomorrow?
[Commentator]
Look
at this side-choke again.
[Indistinct shouting on TV]
Bloody and beaten on the floor,
is Belina Dalista.
A dominant third round,
potentially ten-eight here.
Again, trying to
posture up to her feet.
More elbows,
more shots now on the Brazilian.
She holds her down,
trying for the rear-choke for this...
[Glass clinks]
You know you are the last guest?
- I am?
- Yeah.
Let's do something soon.
I'm sorry, but,
I don't have the time, to...
- Let's do vodka shots.
- [Laughs]
No, it's...
not allowed to drink when I work.
Yeah, but you are...
finishing now, no?
- I'm the last client.
- Yes, but there's a camera there...
- I cannot--
- Okay, you know what?
I buy this bottle,
I take it out.
I meet in front of the hotel,
we drink it there.
Are you not allowed
to drink on the street?
[Chuckles] I'm sorry,
but it's not allowed.
- It's not allowed.
- I buy it, I buy it.
I buy it now,
and then we take it with us.
Okay, maybe you
can take it to your room?
First...
[They laugh]
That's a great idea.
We go too my room,
we have a couple of shots there.
- No...
- 'Cause there is no camera there, no?
- No, no.
- I looked, there is no camera there.
No, it's not allowed.
[Laughs] It's not a good idea.
We watch a movie together,
don't worry.
Come on.
I'm sorry,
but I don't have the time 'about' that.
For that.
Maybe you're right.
I have to work tomorrow, you know?
Yes, you have work.
You have a lot for tomorrow?
I mean, I wanna train the girls.
Tomorrow, I really wanna kick their ass.
Morning.
- Morning.
- Good morning.
[Velcro scratches]
Fatima, you're gonna join us?
Yeah, I'm training but just,
be careful, because...
the Botox was really expensive.
Just don't hit me in the face.
What happened to your face?
[Fatima] I made Botox,
and filler for my lips.
It will heal in a minute.
But this is what happens
after I do it.
[Sarah] Ah, but, it looks painful.
It must hurt.
Yeah, but it's worth it.
- [Sarah] Ah, yeah?
- Mm-hmm.
But your lips
were so nice before.
[Fatima] Thank you, but I mean,
I might like them more now.
I mean, it's really good.
I like this--
[Sarah] I mean, no, it really
looks like you got punched in the face.
No, I just like this one more.
- [Thud]
- Okay, let's start.
We go right into it.
Um... [taps gloves]
You are gonna give me, like,
100 taps to each other's glove.
Like this. Yeah.
100 of these,
let's see where we are.
Otherwise you just do
a second round until I tell you.
One, two, three... go.
So, you did yesterday...
We talked about,
this is the basic stance.
And then, a one, is just a jab.
It's just a straight punch
from the left.
So, just try to hit
right into my pad.
Again.
Yeah, and now you don't want to...
lean out there,
and stay there for half an hour,
but you want to go "Pow!".
Make it short and spicy.
Okay.
Again.
Yes, and, you want
to keep the arms up, right?
So, let's go again.
Yes, good,
keep them up. Again.
Keep them up.
Keep them up.
Like you did in the beginning.
[Tapping continues]
Again.
Arms should be up. Arms--
[Fatima laughs]
What was that?
Let's go again.
Keep the arms up.
Keep them up.
Again.
Okay. No--
What are you doing?
[Fatima chuckles]
Ha ha.
Okay, let's go again.
One.
- What are you doing?
- Oh!
[Fatima whimpers]
[Fatima cries]
[Shaima, in Arabic]
What's wrong?
[Fatima] I just--
I don't want to train anymore.
What's wrong?
-
What's wrong?
- [Sarah] I'll get you some water.
[In Arabic]
She hit me.
[Clicks tongue]
[Sarah] Come on, I did not hit you hard.
[Fatima] Just go away.
- I didn't hit so hard.
- Stop.
[Door slams]
So, shall we continue?
- [Sarah] Is she really hurt?
- No, I doubt.
She's fine,
she's fine, don't worry.
Yeah, we continue?
[Nour] Sarah?
Can I talk to you for a bit, please?
[Distant soft music]
What?
Can you come here, please?
Um, can I please have your phone?
For fifteen minutes.
- My phone?
- Hmm.
What do you need it for?
Instagram.
[Zipper scratches]
Okay, I give you. But...
Like, 15 minutes max.
You can wait in the TV room, if you want.
[Cheerful music on TV]
I'm sorry, about before.
[Whispers] Nour.
Nour.
Nour.
[Distant music on TV]
Nour.
[She sighs, mumbles]
Nour.
I need my phone back.
[Soft, distant music]
[Woman on video, in Arabic]
Stay away from me.
[Abdul on video]
Aya...
Aya, not today!
Go to your room, Aya.
- [Commotion, thudding]
-
Stop being difficult.
Enough!
- [Aya]
I don't want to!
- [Slapping]
- [Abdul]
Aya!
- [Fatima shouts]
You're hurting her!
- [Abdul]
Enough, focus on me!
- [Fatima]
You're hurting her!
[Argument continues on video;
Aya crying]
[Abdul]
Stop it! It's enough!
[Nour, in English]
This is
my fourth sister, Aya.
She's the oldest one,
not Shaima.
You haven't met her yet,
and you won't meet her.
She's locked up in her room,
she can't go to the kitchen.
She is being punished every single day
and living this life.
And we can't do anything about it.
[Ammar]
Shaima!
I'm so sorry for taking your phone.
There are a lot of things
I want to explain to you.
[Thudding]
- [Nour breathes shakily]
- [Ammar]
Nour?
[Sarah inhales deeply]
[Treadmill whirs]
[Engine revs]
Sarah,
Abdul wants you office?
I don't want to train with the girls.
Come.
[Birds chirp outside]
Sarah, how are you?
Please, grab a seat.
[He clears his throat]
Can I get you anything to drink?
Water, coffee?
- No, no, I'm fine.
- Tea?
Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm sure.
Okay.
So, I dunno...
how we're gonna do this.
Listen...
I'm sure you do have questions.
Actually, I do
have a lot of questions.
I mean, uh, that...
maybe you wanna tell me,
what's been going on at the house?
I'm sure you have questions.
I mean you know that
I was up there, right?
You know that I saw the room?
Listen,
it's more complicated than you think.
We're a normal,
or at least we used to be...
a normal family.
I have a fourth sister called Aya,
and Aya...
was the happiest kid you'll meet.
Things were great.
Until one day,
she got diagnosed with schizophrenia,
and things started
spiraling out of control for her.
She got sick,
and it's just been a very...
very tough mental health journey for her,
for me, and for my family,
dealing with it,
and seeing her in that state, but...
Yeah.
And you decided
to tie her down on the bed?
Listen, I don't know if you're aware--
And beat up the other sisters?
[Abdul] No-one's beating anyone up
in this house, okay?
She's... schizophrenic.
She's had several episodes
where she was gonna hurt herself,
hurt the family,
hurt her sisters...
So what we are doing upstairs
is for her best...
for my sisters' best.
[Sarah] It looks like a
torture chamber to me.
That's what it looked like to you.
- Yeah, it did.
- Yeah, but I love my sisters so much
and what we are doing for her
is for her best, and for my sisters' best.
- Ah, okay.
- Yeah, so...
Yeah, well...
I dunno. Okay.
We have to put proper measures
in the house to protect her.
- Right.
- But anyways, Sarah, honestly...
[Phone buzzes]
I need to get this.
Okay.
[Abdul, in Arabic]
Hello, Dad.
Of course.
[TV chatter;
Birds chirping outside]
I got your message.
Hmm?
I mean, I got your mail.
Let's not talk about this here.
Can you get a new phone?
[Emotional music]
You still have that?
[Lights click;
TV clicks off]
[Woman] Come on guys.
Bedtime.
Eva, shame on you.
Fatima's still praying.
- [In Arabic]
It's alright.
- [In Arabic]
Go on, finish.
It's OK.
[Nour]
Don't be silly.
Finish your prayers.
Don't be silly.
C'mon.
Aya?
[Eva] Aya, why are you here?
Go to your room.
[In Arabic]
Aya, how did you get out?
Aya, what's wrong?
Let's go upstairs.
Aya, go in your room,
I give you your medicine.
[Eva] It's bedtime.
[Shaima] Aya?
[Eva] Aya?
Let's go back up.
Before they come.
Nour, did you let her out?
-
No.
-
Don't lie!
I didn't, leave me alone!
Stop blaming me.
For God's sake!
I can't take this anymore!
[Nour]
I didn't let her out, OK?
Stop blaming me for everything!
- [Eva] Where you going?
- What's going on?
Aya!
[Footsteps recede,
distant shouting]
[Nour]
Shaima!
That's dangerous!
[Shaima]
Nour, stay away!
-
Aya, don't!
-
Abdul!
Abdul!
[All shriek]
[Shrieking, sobbing]
[Abdul shouting]
[Line rings]
[Line rings]
[Line rings]
[Line rings]
[Beeps]
Hello?
Sarah?
[In German] Hi.
I can't see you.
What's up? Have you
been crying?
[Voice breaks]
You're breaking up.
Sarah, your screen...
[Voice breaks]
[Indistinct speech]
You're breaking up.
[Sarah breathes shakily]
Are you OK?
Not really.
Sarah, your... video's gone.
-
Can you hear...
- [Beeps off]
The Princess of the Desert.
You were supposed to make
a Princess of the Desert.
[Jay] You want make it for now?
Yes.
Yes, I asked somebody
five-million-years ago, I want it now.
- Please, be quiet. They're looking.
- No, no, but I'm...
- I was already very quiet,
- Please be quiet
but I'm not getting
my fucking cocktail.
[Jay sighs]
I'm gonna tip you a big, fat, dime.
- Thank you.
- Don't fuck it up, now.
- Can I have the cocktail?
- Yes, sure.
Just one minute.
What are you doing
with your phone?
This is not making me a cocktail
with your phone.
- Are you sexting?
- No.
- Hello.
- But, why--
[Sarah laughs]
Let's go. Come.
I'm sorry,
is this a proper introduction?
Let's go.
- Wait, wait, wait.
- We have to go.
Wait, wait wait,
I'm in the middle of an order.
No, no.
- Sir, I'm in the middle of an order...
- That's okay.
- That's rude.
- Easy Sarah, be quiet.
- Please.
- Let's go.
I'm holding no cocktail in my hand.
Let go now. Okay?
- Calm down.
- I'm calm, I'm calm.
- You're not calm.
- Come please, with me.
I'll take my bag. Relax.
Take your bag and go.
- Okay. Yes.
- Come. We go, please.
Fuck you, Jay.
[Indistinct chatter, laughter]
Sorry.
- Club?
- Club. Yes.
[Low hum]
[Muffled dance music]
[Music volume slowly rising]
[Loud dance music and chatter]
[Dance music continues]
Hey Sarah.
Um... So Aya died.
[Nour continues on video]
We had this plan, and...
We have this plan to run away, and...
The day after tomorrow, um...
Fatima, Shaima and I will
go to the mall with our bodyguard,
and during the noon prayer,
we tell him
that we want to pray, so...
when he goes to the male prayer room,
we will come to the female restroom.
And we will meet you there.
We will tell you
where to get close to us.
[Sarah retches]
And we want you
to rent a car as well.
[Retches]
We really need your help.
It's the only choice we have.
[Sarah sighs]
Please tell us if you're in or not.
[Sarah grunts]
[Sighs]
[Moans]
[Gurgles]
[Sighs]
[Burps]
[Moans]
[Background chatter]
[Call to prayer starts, over speakers]
[Sighs] I'm glad you're here.
[Nour, in Arabic]
Hurry up, get dressed.
[Shaima]
What is this shit?
[Nour]
Just put it on!
[Nour] Did you get some glasses as well?
- [Sarah] Yes.
- Okay. Good.
[In Arabic]
Happy with these clothes?
[In Arabic]
Shaima, not now. Get dressed.
If we're caught,
I'm blaming you.
[Prayer continues over speakers]
Get dressed.
Will you be happy
if we're caught?
This isn't the time.
Let's go.
Fatima, hurry!
What's your problem?
[Shaima]
What if he
leaves the prayer room?
What'll you do with your sister?
-
Do you hear yourself?
-
Yeah, I do.
What if we get caught?
Sweetie...
your hesitation is endangering us.
You'll ruin our plan.
Nour, there are many ways to run away.
Shaima, this is the only way.
You can get married.
I don't want to!
[Nour]
Our parents don't care about us.
[Shaima]
It's no!
- [Nour]
Dad is a criminal.
-
No!
Shaima, there's no time. C'mon.
I won't.
What's your problem?
-
Don't touch me!
-
I refuse!
I'm trying to make you understand.
[Shaima]
Don't push!
[Nour]
I'm trying to get through to you!
We have no time, get it?
If we get caught, I'm blaming you!
[Fatima]
Enough, Shaima!
Enough, Nour!
When what happened to Aya
happens to you, don't blame me.
We won't end up like Aya.
She was ill.
You can't say yes, then no!
You saw what happened to Aya!
Is this a life we're living?
-
Don't say we've no choice.
-
OK, let's go.
-
This is our only chance.
-
Fine.
Either take it or stay here alone!
OK, let's go.
[Sarah] Let's go.
Okay, go.
Alright.
All the way down.
- Here?
- To the right.
- Where?
- The silver car, there.
Left.
There.
Shit.
- Oh, God.
- Shit.
[Man]
Stop, no one leaves.
[Nour] Sorry, just
drive. Go left. Just drive.
- Stop. Stop.
- [Knock on window]
- Open the door. Open the door.
- Lock the doors.
[Shaima] Sarah, open the door.
Please, open the door.
[Man]
Get out! You'll only make it worse!
[Shaima] Open the door.
[Nour] Sarah they can't hurt us.
They work for us.
[Shaima] Sarah, listen to me.
They're going to harm us.
- [In Arabic] They won't hurt us!
- [In Arabic] This is your fault!
It's all your fault!
- [Fatima] Open the door.
- [Man]
Open the door now!
Sarah.
[Fatima] Sarah, please.
Open the door.
[Nour] Just drive.
[Man]
Don't make things worse!
-
Open up!
- [Tapping window]
This is all your fault.
Sarah, please open the door.
Please open the door.
[Fatima]
Nour, it's enough!
[Man knocks]
Come on.
Scare them.
[Gunshot, they shriek]
[Lock clicks]
[Door opens]
[Man]
Get out! Out!
[Sobbing]
C'mon, get out!
Come with me.
[Nour]
Get the fuck off me!
[Nour crying]
[Door shuts]
[Muffled crying]
[Knocks]
[Man] You can go home, now.
Move it!
Move.
[Engine revs, recedes]
[Wind blows]
[Cellphone rings]
[Coffee burbles]
[Soft music on background]
[In German] Make sure
you're not holding back.
Your arm should be
fully extended.
[Indistinct chatter]
Don't choke.
Last five.
Five...
Four. Remember, defense.
Three.
Two.
We always watched videos of you
and looked at photos.
Are you happy Auntie Sarah's back?
We missed her, huh?
- Right.
- We're so happy she's back!
- Think she remembers me?
- Of course.
- [Baby babbles]
- Yes, that's right!
- I bet.
- You remember her, right?
But maybe she can visit more often...
your Auntie Sarah.
You have to be careful she doesn't drown.
Because kids can drown very quickly.
In ten seconds. And when they drown,
they don't make a sound.
It's nothing dramatic.
Not dramatic?
But then we could sleep in again,
eat in peace...
It's probably easier to kill a kid,
- [Sister chuckles]
- than to look after it.
Y'know?
- But...
- I can help you.
I can do it.
I have more distance.
Exactly,
'cause how would you feel after?
I didn't seen her in a long time.
We don't know each other that well.
I could do it for you easy.
- For free.
- She can hear you, y'know.
- Quick and easy.
- Stop it!
I wouldn't shed a tear.
Maybe tomorrow.
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow.
What'd be your alibi?
[Sister laughs]
I'd cover for you.
- You know I would.
- OK, cool.
[Water splashes softly]
[Rock music on speakers]
[Woman 1] From the side
it looks a bit stumpy.
And besides...
[Woman 2] But what bothers you about it?
It's crooked. It goes...
- Yeah, but...
- Touch it, there's a crook.
- Do you feel it?
- Yeah, but...
[Woman 1] I don't want
to keep obsessing about it.
- It costs 8,000 euros.
- [Woman 2] Seriously?
I've researched it
and watched videos of operations.
I'm a bit scared.
But do they put you under?
- I think so.
- Really?
[Woman 2] I'd only do it
if they put me under.
I couldn't...
There is some risk.
[Song changes: Powerful]
[Conversation continues, indistinct]
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on
Come on, come on
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na-na
Feels so good being bad
There's no way I'm turning back
Now the pain is my pleasure
Nothing can measure
Love is great, love is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling
leaves me wanting more
'Cause I may be bad,
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care,
I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
I may be bad,
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care,
I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Come on, come on, come on
S, S, S and
M, M, M
S, S, S and
M, M, M
S, S, S and
M, M, M
S, S, S and
M, M, M
