Frida Kahlo is a phenomenon. She is arguably the world’s favourite female artist – beloved by young and old. Exhibition on Screen’s award-winning film – first released during COVID to a restricted audience – is back by popular demand with an exciting new addition from the curators of the blockbuster transatlantic exhibition from Tate Modern and MFA Houston Frida: The Making of an Icon. Back in the cinemas in May 2026, one month before the Tate exhibition opens, the release allows audiences to watch both the film and see the show.
Making use of the latest technology to deliver previously unimaginable quality, we take an in-depth look at key works throughout her career. Using letters Kahlo wrote to guide us, this definitive film reveals her deepest emotions and unlocks the secrets and symbolism contained within her art.
Exhibition on Screen’s trademark combination of interviews with world experts and a detailed exploration of her art, with new special bonus footage from the curators of the blockbuster 2026 exhibition, delivers a treasure trove of color and emotion. This personal and intimate film offers privileged access to her works, her home, her studio and highlights the source of her feverish creativity, her resilience and her unmatched lust for life, beauty and revolution.
Created in close collaboration with world experts and those who knew her. 2020/2026, U.K., DCP, 90 minutes. Recommended for 13+. Featuring additional new material from the curators of the groundbreaking new Tate Modern and MFA Houston exhibition.
