Aukmen the movie trailer
Ahmad Al-Sulaiti is an Engineer from Qatar who was driven out of his dead end job where he was mistreated for several years. Ahmad takes off to Thailand to fulfill his only real dream of becoming a professional fighter. When he arrives in Bangkok he quickly runs into a series of unfortunate events which leave him broke and helpless. Luckily he is taken in by a traditional Muay Thai camp owned by Apidej and his grand daughter Katoon (Julaluck Ismalone) and he is given a chance to make a living out of fighting professionally.
Ahmad adds to his bad luck streak by accepting to fight illegally when given a chance by a young suspicious promoter called Nikki who matches him with K-1 champion Kaoklai Kanorasing!!
At a late age Ahmad has to learn how the rules of judging in Muay Thai don’t favor a foreigner like him so he must put the extra effort to finish each fight against the toughest fighters out there!
Coming from a different culture and background, the events that take place help Ahmad realize a lesson in life, which was that victory doesn’t only come by winning a fight, but by winning the people who were always there for you.
