Open Love NY presents Poly Movie Night, a FREE series of feature films that focus on the portrayal of consensual / ethical non-monogamy in cinema. This month we’ll be in person at our regular venue, The Bureau of General Services–Queer Division and celebrating 7 years of Poly Movie Night!

Please join us for “Professor Marston and the Wonder Women” (2017), written and directed by Angela Robinson and starring Luke Evans, Rebecca Hall and Bella Heathcote. The movie was widely praised as one of the most positive portrayals of polyamory in modern American film to date.

Wednesday, May 3 – 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Bureau of General Services-Queer Division
208 W 13th St, Rm 210
New York, NY 10011

We’ll meet at 6:30 pm at The Bureau (in room 210 of The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center at 208 West 13th Street) for pre-screening socializing and start the movie at 7 pm. The event is free, although a $10 suggested donation to help fund future events is much appreciated. Donations will be collected in cash at the event, or you can donate through Venmo @Open-LoveNY (#8555). All proceeds will be split between the BGSQD and Open Love NY.

Synopsis: Based on the true story of the creator of the character Wonder Woman, Harvard psychologist Dr. William Marston’s polyamorous relationship with his wife and their lover was more provocative than any adventure he had ever written. Running time: 1 hour 48 minutes.
