Sky Arte will air a special evening dedicated to Frida Kahlo on Sunday, January 7, featuring four documentaries. The lineup begins with 'Frida – Viva la Vida', produced by Ballandi Arts and Nexo Digital, directed by Giovanni Troilo, with narration by Asia Argento. It traces the artist's life in six chapters through exclusive interviews, archival documents, reconstructions, and an original score by Remo Anzovino.
