La peinture devient le combat de son existence. Elle rencontre le muraliste Diego Rivera qu'elle admire et qu'elle épouse en 1929 : une relation complexe et tumultueuse. Son adhésion aux idées communistes Sa vision du peuple mexicain et de son folklore. Ses références à la culture amérindienne. Sa relation avec le révolutionnaire russe, pourchassé par Staline, Léon Trotski, accueilli avec son épouse, en 1937, dans sa maison familiale, la Casa Azul. Son œuvre picturale reflétant, tout à la fois, son exubérance et son désespoir. Voici le premier passage d'un texte qui, à la façon d'un prologue-résumé du sujet, apparaît dans le film : « De son lit de moribonde, Frida Kahlo, la grande artiste-peintre, reconstruit, en suivant les palpitations authentiques de sa mémoire, c'est-à-dire, de manière décousue et fragmentée, uniquement à travers les images, sa vie et son œuvre incontournable de l'époque du muralisme mexicain.
