This award-winning documentary (Montreal International Festival of Films - Best Biography of an Artist) provides a stirring look at the life and times of Mexico's most famous woman painter, Frida Kahlo. Although the film is old, with simple editing techniques, it eloquently portrays the artist's life in the famous "Blue House" outside of Mexico City that she shared with her husband, the famous muralist and painter Diego Rivera. A near fatal bus accident, years of traumatic surgery, and endless heartache left Frida Kahlo devastated, relentlessly transferring her physical and emotional pain to the canvas. Readings from her diaries, archival photographs, and film footage offer an intimate portrait of one of the most astonishing figures of the twentieth century. Narrated by Sada Thompson and commentary written by Hayden Herrera, this documentary explores Kahlo as the center of the Mexican renaissance of the 1920s and 1930s. Not just as an artist, but as a tragic figure as it follows her painting career, her growing interest in politics and her turbulent relationship with her husband, Diego.

Filmmaker Amy Stechler reveals one of the most well-known female artists of the 20th Century in "The Life and Times of Frida Kahlo" (2005). This biopic guides viewers through the life and times of one of Mexico's legendary painters who was also an enduring feminist icon. Kahlo suffered from illness and a destructive relationship with fellow artist Diego Rivera but never lost her dramatic flair and radicalism. This profoundly new portrait of the famous artist includes thousands of photographs, rare movie footage of the artist and her era, and interviews of friends, students and experts.

Frida Kahlo ist die bekannteste Künstlerin Lateinamerikas, ihr Werk wurde zum nationalen Kulturgut Mexikos erhoben. Mit beeindruckender und manchmal verstörender Klarheit verarbeitet sie in ihren Bildern die seelischen und körperlichen Leiden, die sie von einem schweren Verkehrsunfall davontrug. Der Film stellt jedoch erstmals nicht die Leidensgeschichte der berühmten Malerin in den Vordergrund, sondern ihr künstlerisches Werk. Im Sommer 2007 wäre Frida Kahlo 100 Jahre alt geworden.
