The film is set to be released in cinemas on the 18th September.
An official trailer has now been released for The Cycle of Love, the latest film by Academy Award-winning director Orlando von Einsiede, which had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival.
In 1977, PK, a 23-year-old Delhi street artist from a poor, ‘untouchable’, family, picked up a handful of paintbrushes and a second-hand bicycle and set off on a 6000-mile cross-continent mission – to find Lotta, the woman who had captured his heart on a visit to India. A love story like no other, The Cycle of Love is an inspiring, heart-warming, epic true-life adventure about the search for self-belief and risking everything for what your heart tells you.
The team (Virunga, The White Helmets) behind the film worked closely with PK and Lotta, who also appear in the film, the filmmakers were granted access to their extraordinary archive of photographs, home videos and an extraordinary treasure trove of love letters allowing them to tell their remarkable story with authenticity and emotional intimacy.
Their younger selves are protrayed by Chirag Benedict Lobo (West End’s Lie of Pie, ITV’s Endeavour) and Mina Dale (HBO’s Alt Du Esker.)
The Cycle of Love is a Grain Media and Kalabati Pictures production, in association with BD4, Tudip Entertainment and AMPL, Artemis Rising Foundation, Grace Labs, Waldesfriede Films and Priyanka Chopra’s Purple Pebble Pictures.
