Based on the remarkable true story of renowned Indian artist, PK Mahanandia, The Cycle Of Love follows PK, a 23-year-old Delhi street artist from a poor, 'untouchable' family, who, in 1977, picked up a handful of paintbrushes and a second-hand bicycle to embark on an extraordinary 6,000-mile, cross-continent journey to find Lotta, the Swedish woman who had captured his heart during her visit to India. Set against the backdrop of 1970s India, his remarkable journey becomes a powerful story of hope, resilience and the belief that love can overcome even the greatest obstacles.
A love story shaped by destiny, 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 and following the path of your fate.
Lobo takes on the lead role of PK, delivering a heartfelt performance that captures the optimism, vulnerability and unwavering determination of the young Delhi artist. His portrayal shines a light on one of India's most remarkable, real-life love stories, introducing PK's extraordinary journey to a new generation of audiences.
With exclusive access, the multiple Academy Award-winning team behind Virunga, The White Helmets and Learning To Skateboard In A Warzone (If You're A Girl) brings this beautiful, thrilling and life-affirming tale to life. The filmmakers were granted access to PK and Lotta's personal archive of photographs, home videos and a collection of handwritten love letters, allowing the story to be told with authenticity and intimacy.
