In this Hollywood-esque biopic filmmaker Angela Robinson reveals the background and life story of Wonder Woman-creator Dr. William Moulton Marston. In the 1940s the Harvard professor lived in a polyamorous relationship with his wife and their mutual lover. Their shared passion for BDSM and roleplay explains not only Wonder Woman’s feminist attitude but also her magic lasso and costumes.
