Marley Uribe is a talented Mexican-American actress and filmmaker based in Los Angeles, deeply connected to her heritage and passionate about telling authentic stories. Proud of her roots, Marley was inspired to create her own film in response to claims that Frida Kahlo was merely a "white girl" appropriating indigenous culture.
In her film FRIDA: THE WOMAN, Marley beautifully highlights the rich tapestry of Mexican culture, which is a unique blend of indigenous and mestizo (European) influences. She dives into how this cultural fusion played a significant role in shaping Frida's early artistry and iconic style, bringing to light a deeper, more nuanced understanding of Frida's identity and the world that shaped her.
