Synopsis:
The founders of the art of parkour, the Yamakasi are arguably the most famous, skilled and respected practitioners of free-running in the world. In Sons Of The Wind: Bangkok Ninjas, they cement their reputation with a dazzling showcase of stunt work, acrobatics and martial arts techniques that raises the bar for a discipline that has become familiar to cinemagoers worldwide thanks to movies such as 'District 13', 'Casino Royale', ''Live Free Or Die Hard', 'Cop Out' and, most recently, 'The Losers'.

When a group of French free-runners decide to move from Europe to Bangkok to set up a training school and gym in the Thai capital, they get more than they bargained for when they encounter a gang of Thai athletes and martial artists who have chosen to betray their heritage by pledging allegiance to a powerful Japanese Triad leader intent on gaining control of the city's underworld. Unfamiliar with the local culture and the traditions and customs that have led the Thai gang to side with the Japanese gangsters, the Frenchmen become unwittingly entangled in a deadly, escalating turf war they don't understand. In the midst of this violent turmoil, each one is forced to face his past and his fears, as questions of loyalty, love and integrity are raised while the threat of an inevitable mortal combat looms before them.
