Booting lives in a small and peaceful village. One day a sacred Buddha statuette called Ong Bak is stolen from the village by an immoral businessman. It soon becomes the task of a voluntary young man, Boonting (Phanom Yeeram), to track down the thief in Bangkok and reclaim the religious treasure. Along the way, Boonting uses his astonishing athleticism and traditional Muay Thai skills to combat his adversaries. ??astroboy2kAwards: 2 wins & 5 nominationsWorldwide Gross: $20,235,426Soundtrack: Bangkok Running (Written by Excellence and Vincent Tulli)Prachya PinkaewTony Jaa, Petchtai Wongkamlao, Pumwaree Yodkamol2005-02-11 (Thailand, France, Hong Kong)tt0368909
