Ong Bak (2003)
Don, ein junger Geschäftsmann aus Bangkok, reist in sein kleines abgelegenes thailändisches Heimatdorf Nong Pra-du, um dort ein wertvolles Amulett aus dem Gesicht der dort verehrten Buddha-Statue Ong-Bak für seinen Auftraggeber Komtuan zu kaufen. Nachdem ihm aber der Dorfvorsteher die Reliquie nicht verkaufen will, trennt der Geschäftsmann kurzerhand den Kopf des Heiligtums ab, um nicht mit leeren Händen zu seinem Chef zurückzukehren. Der in der „ältesten Kampfsportart der Welt“, Muay Thai, ausgebildete Ting wird von den Ältesten seines Dorfes beauftragt, das Heiligtum zurückzubringen, da man ohne den Schutz des Buddha eine Katastrophe für die gläubige Gemeinde befürchtet.
