Hola Frida

Frida Kahlo’s adventurous childhood. A love letter to life and to one of the most famous artists of all time. Wonderfully, colorfully animated.

Frida loves stories, roller skating, and her little dog Chiquita. She dreams of becoming a doctor. But when she contracts polio, a shadow falls over her life. Left alone in her sickbed, her only escape is the world of fantasy. There, she also comes face to face with her fears. Above all, however, it’s her own powerful heart that beats amidst many colorful flowers, while tears turn into wings. Maybe you’ll recognize some of these motifs from Frida Kahlo’s paintings. Let yourself be enchanted by this little girl’s indomitable strength, the magic of friendship, and the healing power of art. Viva la Vida!
