DETAILS

20th Anniversary Screening!

NO COMPUTER GRAPHICS. NO STUNT DOUBLES. NO WIRES.

In the rural village of Ban Nong Pradu in north eastern Thailand lies Ong Bak: a sacred Buddha statue revered by its locals. Despair and drought falls upon the village when the ancient statue’s head is stolen by thieves. To retrieve it, a country bumpkin named Ting, who happens to be extremely good at Muay Thai, will have to kick, punch, elbow and flying-knee his way through Bangkok’s criminal underworld.

Directed by Prachya Pinkaew and choreographed by B-movie director, writer, and martial artist Panna Rittikrai, Ong Bak not only put Muay Thai on the map of International action-cinema but also introduced the world to the incredible TONY JAA who would go on to star in hit franchises like the Fast & Furious, xXx, and The Expendables.
