Se cumplen 60 años de la muerte de Marilyn Monroe y sin embargo sigue siendo un icono perdurable décadas después. Su historia se ha contado infinidad de veces, pero ¿conocemos realmente a la "actriz de las actrices"? "Descubriendo a Marilyn" le da, por fin, voz a ella. La propia actriz, a través de las entrevistas que realizó y los libros y fragmentos que escribió, recuperará la voz de nuevo para reconstruir una imagen que siempre había sido construida desde la mirada de los hombres. Nos cuenta, en primera persona, su metamorfosis desde Norma Jeane a la estrella inmensa en la que se convirtió. Un cambio fruto de la brillante intuición de una joven y de su ambición pero también de los imperativos de una época y de los deseos de los magnates de los grandes estudios. Un documental que retrata a la actriz y a sus papeles pero también a una industria sexista, la de los años dorados del Hollywood de los 50.
