Synopsis

From her complex and enduring relationship with her mentor and husband, Diego Rivera (Alfred Molina), to her illicit and controversial affair with Leon Trotsky (Geoffrey Rush), to her provocative romantic entanglements with women, Frida Kahlo (Salma Hayek) lived a bold and uncompromising life as a political, artistic and sexual revolutionary. FRIDA chronicles the life Kahlo shared openly and unflinchingly with Rivera, as this young couple took the art world by storm.
