SYNOPSIS In a superhero origin tale unlike any other, the film is the incredible true story of what inspired Harvard psy- chologist Dr. William Moulton Marston to create the iconic Wonder Woman character in the 1940's. While Marston's feminist superhero was criticized by censors for her 'sexual perversity', he was keeping a secret that could have destroyed him. Marston's muses for the Wonder Woman character were his wife Elizabeth Mar- ston and their lover Olive Byrne, two empowered women who defied convention: work- ing with Marston on human behav- ior research -- while building a hidden life with him that rivaled the greatest of superhero disguises.
