About the event

Through Anna Hints’ Sundance-award winning documentary, we enter into their intimate space and immerse ourselves among this collective of women. Between the confines of the smoke sauna, and the frozen expanse of the forests beyond where the women take breaks to dip in a nearby iced-over lake, what director Hints creates is truly experiential. In observing sauna rituals rooted in community, egalitarianism and wellbeing, we see what it means for this group of women to create space for each other: for communion, solidarity and healing as they each regain the strength they need to face the world outside.

Please note this film contains discussions and recollections of sexual violence and domestic abuse.

#ReclaimTheFrame with post-screening discussions with Director Anna Hints, joinging us from Estonia: 

SMOKE SAUNA SISTERHOOD will be presented with descriptive subtitles (SDH), and the introduction will be captioned.
