Once hailed as a revolutionary treatment for "Female Hysteria", the electric vibrator boasts one of the most fascinating technological tales in history. In Passion & Power, The Technology of Orgasm, documentarians Emiko Omori and Wendy Slick bring to the screen the origins of this remarkable device and how it energized the feminist movement a century after its invention. Based on Dr. Rachel Maine’s book “The Technology of Orgasm: Hysteria, the Vibrator, and Women’s Sexual Satisfaction”, Passion & Power illustrates the journey of the electric vibrator from its 19th century utilitarian medical beginnings all the way through to its place at the heart of modern-day controversy.
