(baby crying) - [Narrator] Let me tell you about a little girl born in Mexico.

(gentle music) (birds chirping) She would grow up to be one of the most famous artists in the world.

We all recognize her face and that look.

But who was she really?

And why is she more loved now than ever before?

This daughter of the revolution lived no ordinary life and hers is no easy tale to tell.

- [Stephanie Smith] "Frida Kahlo was a rule breaker."

- [Gannit Ankori] "The way she broke taboos, the way she broke the norm was completely revolutionary and transgressive."

- [Narrator] She was strong and ambitious, and answered to no one... but she was also driven and tormented by love.

- [Hayden Herrera] "She said, 'I love Diego more than I love my own life'."

- [Marth Zamora] "She would always come back to Diego Rivera, like an obsession, an obsession that was painful."

- So why do we still idolize her, this mixed up mess of contradictions and why can't we take our eyes off her?

- [Eli Bartra] "What people see in her is all that power of rebellion, irreverence."

- [Gannit Ankori] "For people who are queer, for people who are brown, for people who are creative in different ways.

She teaches us about identity.

Art was her superpower."

(dramatic music) - [Martha Zamora] "In the end, I don't need her perfect.

She was genius."
