The first time Britain's Lloyd Belcher met Mira Rai, it was in October 2014 and he was shooting promotional images of Mira, a young woman from a Nepalese village, in Hong Kong.
Later, he got the idea to make a film about her.
"Her story is a perfect combination of athleticism and art, which would be best captured in a motion film," Belcher says.
