The 1973 Plane Hijack (also known as the Biratnagar Plane Hijack) was the first such hijacking in the history of Nepal. It was stated that the main purpose of the hijacking was to gather funds for an armed revolution for the restoration of multi party democracy in the country.

The documentary is based on the incident of hijacking of a plane carrying cash of Nepal Rastra Bank by the Nepali Congress. The Nepali Congress at that time was revolting against the Panchayat polity for the restoration of democracy and it hijacked the plane to fund the cash-strapped party to continue the revolt. Former Prime Minister and Nepali Congress leader Girija Prasad Koirala was the mastermind of the hijacking. 

The documentary is directed by journalist Jagat Nepal.
