Aprašymas
A Frida Kahlo painting, a scandal and secrets that threaten to change the course of history
In 1938, showgirl-turned-socialite Dorothy Hale falls from a Manhattan skyscraper. Her friend Clare Boothe Luce - writer, diplomat and rising political figure - commissions Frida Kahlo to paint a memorial portrait.
Months later, reporting from Europe, Clare encounters the Duchess of Windsor in Paris and begins to question what really happened that night. In New York, estranged from Diego Rivera and wrestling with betrayal, ambition and the demands of her art, Frida works on the painting that will become one of her most unsettling - and edges closer to the truth.
Was Dorothy Hale's death an act of despair or something far more dangerous, entangled with the power struggles shaping the modern world?
