We introduced you to the documentary Wonder Women and the companion game Wonder City in episode 65. This week, we take our love of the documentary one step further by interviewing the director, Kristy Guevara-Flanagan. Kristy takes us through her inspiration for the documentary, the process to make it, and what it’s like to interview some of the big name supporters of Wonder Woman, namely Gloria Steinem and Linda Carter.
Support this amazing project by purchasing the brand new DVD available through TransitMedia. You can also rent or buy a digital version through Amazon.
We also WRaP this week, sharing with you what we are Watching, Reading, and Playing. Let us know your thoughts about the interview and the documentary in the comments!
Until next time, Game On!
