Released online: March 14th 2017. This Nepali version is available to view for free here only. Please do not download, copy or reproduce this film in part or whole in any form.

Please understand that we are only making a low resolution version available here as we are screening this film in full HD quality around Nepal via mobile cinemas. It is unfortunate but we have already experienced a good deal of unauthorised copying & downloading of the MIRA trailer & other clips from this film that were made available online since release. We do hope viewers here understand the dilemma we face & if you want to watch the HD version of MIRA then you can view this here: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/miraraifilm Please note that the HD version is not free & there is a charge with all rental sales going directly towards funding the screening of 'Mira' around Nepal and to empower and encourage Nepalese girls to participate in sports. Read more about the film funding here: miraraifilm.com/film-funding/ .

This film was made for a target audience in Nepal & so considering all factors [piracy, Nepal's bandwidth/connection speeds & that we expect most people in Nepal to watch on a mobile phone] then we decided to go with this resolution. If you are Nepalese living overseas & have a good proficiency of English then please support this work in Nepal by renting the English HD version.

'Mira' follows the journey of a spirited Nepali village girl on her pursuit to being a world-recognised mountain runner. Growing up in a remote mountain village in Nepal, Mira always dreamed of being successful in sport despite all the challenges that she & other Nepali girls face. After running away from home, Mira joined the Maoist army until as a young adult, she travelled the long distance to Kathmandu to try her luck. Out of money, she was about to return home to her village, when by chance on a morning run, she meets another runner who tells her about a long running race in the local hills. She wins it and soon begins to realise her tough mountain village upbringing has prepared her perfectly for this sport.

This inspirational story, filmed across Nepal, Hong Kong, Australia, Spain, Italy & France tells the story of Mira’s journey in the face of adversity to compete against the world's best mountain runners.
