Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Orlando von Einsiedel’s film The Cycle of Love, from YouTube:
The film follows the extraordinary true story of PK. Back in 1977, a 23-year-old Delhi street artist from a impoverished, “untouchable” family, picked up a handful of paintbrushes and a second-hand bicycle and set off on a 6,000 mile journey across Europe and Asia to find Lotta, the woman who captured his heart during her visit to India. Convinced their meeting was fate, reinforced by an astrologer’s prophecy matching Lotta’s description, PK embarks on a leap of faith that becomes a journey of love, identity and transformation. The Cycle of Love is directed by acclaimed British doc filmmaker Orlando Von Einsiedel, director of the doc films Virunga, The White Helmets, Convergence: Courage in a Crisis, The Lost Children, and many other miniature films previously. It’s produced by Harri Grace, Chloe Leland, Emelie Mahanandia Von Schedvin, and Karl Mahanandia Von Schedvin. This initially premiered at the 2025 Telluride Film Festival last year. Dogwoof debuts Orlando von Einsiedel’s The Cycle of Love doc film in select US theaters starting August 28th, 2026 coming up soon – and later in the UK in September.
