Synopsis:

Teeth-rattling kickboxing mixes with family conflict, blood and mysticism in Return To Murder, the powerful story of three brothers whose fates become intertwined in a web of deceit and corruption. Deep in debt, young kickboxer Adil agrees to a fight to the death, but when the fight gets brutal, Adil flees. Furious, the club manager hires Adil's brother-turned-assassin Ilham to hunt him down and the chase brings them both to their mutiual hometown of Bunohan and into the shady schemes of their ambitious businessman brother Bakar. The trio's homecoming brings to light the past of their father, whose secrets will unravel the lives of all into the violence of loss, betrayal, corruption... and ultimately murder.

Adil, a young Muay Thai kick-boxer, has just fled an honor fight-to-the-death. Ilham, an assassin who is also Adil's stepbrother, is promptly hired by the organizer of the death match to kill the fugitive. Looking for somewhere to hide and recover, Adil and a childhood friend take shelter in the Bunohan boxing club where Adil started his career. Ilham, meanwhile, has never been back to Bunohan since the day he left many years ago. Upon returning, memories of loneliness and abandonment flood his mind, and he experiences waves of resentment and regret. Bakar, the third brother, has also come home from the city; ostensibly a respectful schoolteacher, he is in reality a greedy and ruthless person, and is trying to convince his father to sell a burial ground to a construction company.
