dc.description.abstractMy Husbands Wife is an 8-part miniseries set in a Christian polygamous cult. The miniseries focuses on Maryline, a prickly young woman who rails against her role as the Cult Leaders sixth wife. When her husband marries again, Maryline finds herself romantically drawn to her new sister-wife, Angellee. Meanwhile, Officer Tali Cooper investigates the cult and is convinced its responsible for a string of disappearances spanning decades, including the disappearance of her cousin. The series examines the importance of autonomy, the dangers and virtues of faith, and the double-edged sword of desire. Inspired by Koopmans own religious upbringing, My Husbands Wife is a unique marriage between the aesthetic of Anne with an E and the urgency of The Handmaids Tale.
