Booting lives in a small and peaceful village. One day a sacred Buddha statuette called Ong Bak is stolen from the village by a immoral businessman who sells it for exorbitant profits.

Along the way, Boonting uses his astonishing athleticism and traditional Muay Thai skills to combat his adversaries.
