Smoke Sauna Sisterhood
Smoke Sauna Sisterhood
Synopsis
Estonia’s smoke sauna tradition is on UNESCO’s list of “Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity”. Anna Hint’s award-winning documentary observes a group of women from the Võro community as they share not just the sauna-based rituals, but also their most intimate stories and secrets within the shelter of one such sauna. The result is a journey of cleansing, healing and solidarity.

The Guardian
"the small, smoky, steamy miracle of this film is how it creates something so intangible, so lyrical, from the absolutely elemental: fire, wood, water and lots of naked female flesh"
