Why watch the movie Lorena: Light-footed Woman?
"Maria Lorena Ramirez is one of the most inspiring Mexican figures of recent memory, winning the UltraTrail Cerro Rojo ultramarathon (a 50 kilometer journey) using only traditional clothing and footwear of the Rarámuri people (or Tarahumaras). With just half an hour, the short film 'Lorena: La de pies ligeros' offers a look at the tradition of indigenous runners of the tribe, whose name can be translated into Portuguese as "those with light feet" - and who are known worldwide for their high performance in long distance races."
