The Cycle of Love – documentary film
When Grain Media began production on The Cycle of Love — a documentary directed by Academy Award–winner Orlando von Einsiedel — Swixer was brought on to manage the Swedish production block.
The film tells the extraordinary true story of an Indian street artist who, in 1977, cycled from India to Sweden — thousands of kilometers across continents — to reunite with the woman he loved. Blending interviews, documentary material and recreated scenes, the film brings this remarkable journey and love story to life.
The Swedish segment required period-accurate locations, smooth logistics and local crew. Swixer provided full on-the-ground support. The film premiered in 2025 and has since screened at major festivals including Telluride, Hamptons, Middleburg and Jackson Hole.
