The early years of Frida Kahlo are brought to life in this colourful animation about being creative and embracing difference.


Frida loves in Coyoacán, Mexico with her beloved dog Chiquita. When faced with difficulties, she responds to them the only way she knows how: with overflowing imagination and creativity. Covering her early years after contracting childhood polio, Hola Frida! paints a vibrant picture of the tenacious little girl who would grow up to be one of the world’s most famous artists.
