Narrated by Rita Moreno, this enlightening biopic uses the life and work of Frida Kahlo, one of Mexico's most legendary painters and an enduring feminist icon, to illuminate the Mexican Renaissance of the 1920s and 30s, as well as the political upheaval of the period. Intimately portraying the artist's personal experiences of pain and suffering, from her early polio affliction to the bus accident that injured her for life, Frida's strength and creativity ultimately prevail. Frida's career blossomed, leading to international success and a brief affiliation with the Surrealists. She also had affairs with both women and men before her health problems deteriorated beyond recovery.
