Frida (Frida, 2002)

This time we will watch "Frida" — one of the most famous feature films about Frida Kahlo. But at the meeting, we will go much further than the film itself.

Topics we will discuss:
• how a severe trauma changed her life and personality;
• how chronic pain affects the psyche;
• why art sometimes becomes a way to survive;
• what happened in her relationship with Diego Rivera — between love, betrayals, freedom, and dependence;
• how her identity was formed and why Frida became not only an artist but also a cultural symbol.
