Frida – Viva La Vida is a cinematic documentary that highlights the two sides of Frida Kahlo’s spirit: on one side the iconic independent and strong woman that everyone knows, tormented by agony and love, and on the other the artist, free from the leashes of her physical constrictions.
With Asia Argento as narrator, the two faces of the artist will be revealed, by pursuing a common thread consisting of Frida’s own words: letters, diaries and private confessions.
A journey deep in the heart of Mexico divided into six chapters that alternates interviews, historical documents, captivating reconstructions and Frida Kahlo’s own paintings, kept in some of the most amazing museums in Mexico.
Over the years, Frida Kahlo became an icon and a role model.
She influenced artists, musicians and stylists. Her importance even surpassed her greatness.
What made her so was the intensity and determination with which she faced a life marked by suffering. Yet her pain, though the essential subject of her work, is not enough in itself to explain the reasons for such an extensive and unanimous affirmation of the artist
In Frida’s works there is a bond linking pain and strength, torment and love.
A bond that is legitimized because it is rooted in a land, Mexico, that after the revolution tries to rediscover its origins through pre-Columbian iconography; in which we find Frida’s explores the identity of opposites, pain and pleasure, darkness and light, moon and sun, life in death and death in life. With this dualism in mind, retracing Frida Kahlo’s life means looking for the point of contact between her suffering throughout her life and her unconditional love for art.

Legendary performer Judy Garland arrives in London in the winter of 1968 to perform a series of sold-out concerts.
Judy takes place in the late 60s, when the 40-something cash-strapped actress and singer, facing the prospect of losing custody of her younger children, is forced to accept an offer to perform a series of concerts in London.
There she is welcomed by adoring fans but her considerable demons, many a direct result of a hugely exploitative childhood, begin to pile up and threaten her ability to perform.
