Opening Night Awareness Festival: The Cycle of Love
October 14, 2026
THE CYCLE OF LOVE is an inspiring, heart-warming, epic true-life adventure about believing in love against all odds. 17 years of powerful paradigm shifting films. We search the globe each year for the best Independent Filmmakers to bring you beautiful, thoughtful, entertaining films that inspire as much as they inform. As a community of filmmakers we offer films that do more than entertain. We aim to raise awareness and inspire positive action through immersive film & media, filmmaker panels, networking events and community partnerships to create a more peaceful, healthy and just world. The most important ingredient is - YOU! Throughout the festival your experience is enhanced with industry panels, special media presentations, and gala events! Mix and mingle with fellow attendees, connect with directors, producers, and influencers from all over the world. Enjoy conscious art, music, yummy food and special events. Attend the Awards ceremony - you get to vote on your festival favs, and at the closing night gala - dance to tunes spun by celebrity guest DJ, enjoy gourmet vegan food donated by our wonderful sponsors and celebrate 16 years of paradigm changing film.
