Frida Kahlo & Tina Modotti (1983)
An unconventional portrait of painter Frida Kahlo and photographer Tina Modotti. Simple in style but complex in its analysis, it explores the divergent themes and styles of two contemporary and radical women artists working in the upheaval of the aftermath of the Mexican Revolution.
Directors: Laura Mulvey, Peter Wollen.
