Mira is a tokyo-based perfomance unit consisting of dancer Honami Hugachi and french-born sound engineer and producer Raphael Leray.
Originally presented by MIRA as a one-hour perfomance show for the Yokohama TPAM fringe festival, Torque (the movie) is a 20 minutes body-perfomance and experimental music short-film built around the cartharsis of traumatic experiences. Based on Honami's personal story the thematic of Torque evolves around her inner self-survival through sexual abuse and her subdequent fall in the sex industry.
