“Wonder Woman” is a tale of transmission, of wisdom passed down from generation to generation, from woman to woman, and from individual woman to society at large – for those in society who are able to hear and heed it.
Its a visual tale of oral history, an allegory that cuts both ways: even as the segregation of women on Themyscira sends Diana into the world with a narrowed view of humankind, male-dominated human society at large, which keeps women largely out of power and cultural authority, keeps itself stultified, blinded, ignorant, oppressive, violent, warmongering.
