Hugh Dancy stars in a romantic comedy exploring the Victorian origins of the world's most popular sex aid!

It's 1880 and London is afflicted with an epidemic of what Victorian doctors call 'hysteria'. Luckily, respected Dr. Robert Dalrymple (Jonathan Pryce) has developed a treatment to relieve tensions within the uterus. It proves so popular that he takes on progressive young assistant Mortimer Granville (Hugh Dancy). This makes Mortimer an ideal suitor for Dalrymple's daughter Emily (Felicity Jones), whose sister Charlotte (Maggie Gyllenhaal) is a firebrand social reformer. But when Mortimer develops a form of RSI as a result of his continuous manipulations, he turns to his technophile friend Edmund St. John-Smythe (Rupert Everett). Together they create a mechanical device to take the drudgery out of intimate stress relief. But this is going to cause friction in more ways than one! Tanya Wexler's hugely enjoyable, sumptuous period drama has at its heart a thoroughly modern and very funny love story.
