Smoke Sauna Sisterhood

In the darkness of an Estonian smoke sauna, women share their innermost secrets and intimate experiences. Through a sense of communion, they wash off the stresses of daily life and regain their strength.

Filmmaker Anna Hints has created a transformative experience of being human, showing these women “as they are” with great emotional veracity and deep empathy.

As the first documentary by an Estonian director to compete and win at Sundance, Smoke Sauna Sisterhood is a deeply moving film.
