MARCH 2026 | HOLA FRIDA !

_{Content available from March 20th until March 24th | Available only via invitation}

“Colorful and whimsical, Hola Frida succeeds in evoking the visual world of Frida Kahlo, telling a fable-like story for children and inspiring them to delve deeper into the work and life of the great Mexican artist. Olivia Ruiz’s lovely song in the credits adds a welcome dose of poetry. A great success.” — Le Point

“With its bright colors and numerous references to the work of Frida Kahlo, the film exalts the young girl’s ability to use her imagination as a source of strength in the face of the most difficult challenges. Curious, creative, funny, caring for the weak and committed to obtaining the same rights as boys, she carries within her the seeds of the extraordinary personality that will make her a role model for generations to come.” — Le Monde

Synopsis

EN

It’s the story of a little girl who is different. Her world is Coyoacan, Mexico City. Sparkling, vibrant, everything interests her, and when difficulties arise, she faces them with an overflowing imagination. This little girl is called Frida Kahlo! Based on the book Frida, c’est moi (text by Sophie Faucher and illustrations by Cara Carmina), published by Edito.
*Please note: Some scenes (school bullying, illness, accident) may be unsettling for younger viewers, but they are handled with sensitivity and highlight Frida’s strength.
