"Smoke Sauna Sisterhood” offers an insightful look into a traditional Estonian sauna ritual

“Smoke Sauna Sisterhood” is a documentary set in Estonia’s Vana-Võromaa region, showcasing a UNESCO-recognized smoke sauna tradition. The film, directed by Anna Hints, captures the intimate and transformative experiences of women who gather in a remote sauna throughout the seasons.



The narrative focuses on Kadi Kivilo and others as they engage in rituals like the long sweat, and openly discuss topics like childbirth, cancer, and personal traumas. The film emphasizes the female body in a natural, unglamorized way, with close-ups that respect the women’s privacy. Estonian folk music adds to the film’s exploration of tradition and transformation, culminating in a springtime scene that symbolizes renewal and communal bonding.
