A story about the power of sisterhood, the beauty of every body and the purifying power of saunas.
Estonian Oscar® and European Film Awards nominee who takes audiences on a journey deep into a life-giving forest. There, a group of women gather in a traditional sauna to relax, sing and cook together, but above all to share their deepest secrets, thoughts and draw strength from the community. In a heated intimate space, they drive fears and shame out of themselves, regaining energy for life. This universal story, filmed over 8 years, also presents the phenomenon of the Estonian smoke sauna, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
