"Trailer for French Muay Thai movie 'Chok Dee'

2005.01.11 - A reader has kindly tipped us off to a new European Muay Thai movie. Coming to France's theaters on February 16th is the martial arts drama Chok Dee starring Dida Diafat, one of the country's top Muay Thai competitors.

Diafat plays a convict named Rayane who is introduced to Muay Thai kickboxing while in prison and upon his release travels to Thailand to join a Muay Thai training camp where he undergoes strenuous conditioning and must prove himself as a foreigner. He eventually ends up fighting in an underground circuit.

From the trailer, Chok Dee appears to be a more serious film about Muay Thai fighting than Ong Bak and may lack the same level of insane action, but it looks promising nevertheless.

More pictures, video and information (in French) on Dia Diafat and Chok Dee can be found at www.dida.fr
