Every movie production starts with visions and dreams. We, the people from Mona Film, want to make those dreams come true – from the initial idea and the implementation through to the successful broadcasting of a film. As an Austrian film production company, we have already proved to be successful in four distinct genres. Apart from that, we are open for profound subjuect matter which is why we created award-winning formats such as „Die Auslöschung“ („The Extinction“), with Klaus Maria Brandauer and Martina Gedeck.
We are particularly known for a variety of entertaining and thrilling television films and TV serials, however, we have also been increasingly focused on international projects and were, amongst others, co-producers of the French cinema film „Angélique".
In the end, a successful movie experience is about the perfect cooperation of the team members – permanently employed people as well as freelancers. Thomas Hroch and Gerald Podgornig, who have founded Mona Film in 2007, have a years-long experience in the film business and look forward to realizing more films in the future.

"Family can't be big enough" - with this sentence, Grandma welcomes little Nina to her big, new patchwork family. Nina's mom Bea has fallen in love with Jerry, who has already been married twice and has three children. And his ex-wives Andrea and Shirin also have new partners, more children, a Horst... it's complicated. Only at Christmas was it always easy: everyone goes to Grandma's Tyrolean hut and for a few wonderful days, everyday stress and discussions are forgotten. But this year, for the first time, everyone has to celebrate Christmas without their beloved grandma and the planning ends, how could it be otherwise, in chaos and arguments. The parents have obviously completely forgotten what Christmas means, so the kids come up with a daring plan: they set off on their own to Tyrol. The adults quickly take up the chase.
Bis in die Seele ist mir kalt - Landkrimi Kärnten
Deaths are piling up around Lake Ossiach this winter. An unknown dead woman washes up on the shore of the mini-golf course, a diabetic woman dies of hypoglycemia on a park bench and another lady is found dead in her house. All the deceased were old and alone, not least because - unlike in the past - there are hardly any places of communication in the village. No pubs, no social life - the lakeside area, so popular and lively in summer, is in hibernation. Perhaps these are natural deaths caused by old age, but policewoman Martina Schober (Jutta Fastian) and her superior Rauchenberger (Clemens Berndorff) have a feeling that something might be wrong and ask Chief Inspector Acham (Pia Hierzegger) from the Klagenfurt Criminal Police Office for help.
Although there are no clear indications of outside culpability, Acham and Martina start investigating and do indeed come across suspects. For example, the estate agent Fuhrmann (Fritz Karl), who is after the houses of the deceased, the unemployed Mario (Kevin Brand), who is always in need of money, or Jenny (Sophie Aujesky), whose boat rental business is going very slowly. Acham and Schober are supported by Ute (Alicia von Rittberg), the good soul of the area, who supplies the old people with food from her organic food store and selflessly offers them her help - and sometimes finds out more than the police. And what nobody wants to admit seems increasingly clear: the murderer must be someone from the area ...

A severely injured man, with his last bit of strength, asks for special investigator Alexander Haller (Philipp Hochmair). It is his friend and former colleague Scherf (Michael Menzel), who until recently was imprisoned for the murder of his wife. When Haller arrives at the clinic, the dying man can only give him two cryptic requests. For Alexander, a new case begins, which brings up old doubts: Was it a fatal mistake that he handed over the investigation back then due to bias? Soon, the investigation focuses on a Viennese coffeehouse empire, where far more than melange and espresso is at stake. In the process, Alex not only puts himself in danger but also risks his friendship with his partner Niko (Andreas Guenther).
Episode 11
Alexander Haller (Philipp Hochmair) meets the head of the Vienna priest school, Wimmer (Martin Feifel), during a concert visit. The clergyman asks the special investigator of the criminal police to inquire about a protégé who has been missing for days. Haller’s call to Commissioner Janda (Jaschka Lämmert) brings certainty: the missing person has been murdered! An initial lead takes them to the noble palace of the Brohnstein family, who run a club and an art gallery. At first glance, there seems to be no connection to the murdered individual, but the siblings Franziska (Martina Ebm), Johannes (Johannes Zirner), and Felix (Hannes Wegener) appear to be hiding something. And Wimmer, who has been a confidant to the Brohnsteins since the death of their parents, also seems to know more than he is willing – or able – to say.
