Gangsters. Job loss. Thai Boxing. A noodle box full of money. These are the essential ingredients peppered throughout 6IXTYNIN9, which combine to leave a delicious and satisfying taste in the mouth once consumed. Tum (Lalita Panyopas) discovers the box of loot on her doorstep one morning while trying to recover from being fired from her job. Attempting to do the right thing for herself, she conceals the cash and hopes she'll be able to spend it without the real owners ever finding out that she has it. Big mistake. For Tum finds herself caught up in the whirlwind lifestyle of some Thai Boxing gangsters, who are keen to rekindle their missing money. A wonderfully incisive comedy from director Pen-Ek Ratanaruang, 6IXTYNIN9 is the perfect illustration of a Thai film industry that finds itself flourishing at the start of the 21st century.
