Exhibition on Screen's trademark combination of interviews, commentary and a detailed exploration of her art delivers a treasure trove of colour and a feast of vibrancy. Using letters Kahlo wrote to guide us, this definitive film reveals her deepest emotions and unlocks the secrets and symbolism contained within her art.
Making use of the latest technology to deliver previously unimaginable quality, we take an in-depth look at key works throughout her career. Anyone interested in see this film should in anticipation read about Mexico's history and the major events of the early 20th Century.Who was Frida Kahlo? Everyone knows her, but who was the woman behind the bright colours, the big brows, and the floral crowns? Take a journey through the life of a true icon, discover her art, and uncover the truth behind her often turbulent life. Frida's character was complex and the film reflected it well. The life of Frida was abnormal in general, she was a lover of several men and also a lesbian one she suffered her problems with legs and the problems of the Mexican society. The other famous Mexican painter of mural, Alfaro Siqueiros, was against Trostky and behaves as a terrorist. It is clear that Mexican communists at that time were loyal to Stalin and organized the plots to kill Trostky.
In another one there is a bitter dialogue among Trostky, Rivera and Frida, where Trostky speaks in Russian through a woman-translator (the Russian language here is the worst of the world, badly pronounced as if Trostky was not Russian).
In a scene one may hear the voice of Trostky in French giving the message to Frida, where he invited her to have love and sex with him. The main characteristic of the film is the lack of dialogues, so, again, not knowing the history it will be difficult to understand the plot. It reflects the life of Frida Kahlo, a famous Mexican painter, more famous because of her political position and her love and relationships with painter of mural like Diego Rivera and political person as Liev Trostky. Not knowing the history and something about the life of Frida, this film is not understandable by anyone.
