In 1977, PK, a young street artist from Delhi, picked up a handful of paintbrushes and a second-hand bicycle and set off on a 6000-mile journey to find the woman who had captured his heart.

Growing up poor and ‘untouchable’, young PK had to reckon with the caste system and with his own sense of self-worth, as he met fellow travellers and locals from all walks of life on his journey across the world. Oscar-nominated director Orlando von Einsiedel retraces PK’s journey from India to Sweden in an extraordinarily uplifting film, that is not just about what can happen when you follow your heart, but is also a paean to the joy of chance encounters and the kindness of strangers.
