About the event
Co-hosted by the Trinity Rooms Community Hub and the Red Hearth team, join us for an intimate evening as we dive into the Estonian sauna culture and women’s healing journeys. Smoke Sauna Sisterhood (Best Documentary Winner at the European Film Awards 2023) is a deeply moving, intimate and breath-taking approach to issues of trauma, healing and community. In the darkness of smoke sauna, women share their innermost secrets and intimate experiences. Through a sense of communion, they wash off the shame trapped in their bodies and regain their strength. With an authentic voice and authority born of their own heritage, filmmaker Anna Hints creates a transformative experience of being human within a female body, showing women “as they are” with great emotional veracity and deep empathy. The screening will be preceded by a live discussion with film director Anna Hints.
