Ahimsa: Stop to Run (Thai: อหิงสา จิ๊กโก๋ มีกรรม|Ahingsa-Jikko mee gam) is a 2005 Thai comedy-drama film written and directed by Kittikorn Kiasirikun (Leo Kittikorn).
Ahingsa is a young man who is haunted by his karma, which takes the form of a mysterious red-haired man who dishes out abuse when Ahingsa runs afoul of morality. When Ahingsa was a young boy, a shaman had the mysterious man removed, but the man returns when Ahingsa is a young man and starts taking drugs and getting involved in rave culture. Ahingsa's behavior soon causes trouble for his friends, Ukhoht and Einstein, and a female physician, Dr. Pattaya.
The film was Thailand's official entry to the 79th Academy Awards. It was chosen after Invisible Waves had been withdrawn by the Federation of National Film Associations of Thailand.[1] [2]
