Sundance Film Festival 2023: World Cinema - Director's Award
European Film Awards 2023: Best European Documentary
In the Nordic countries, saunas are believed to be more than just relaxation: they are a way of facing oneself. Director Anna Hints' stunning cinematography reveals the most intimate moments of traditional Estonian sauna bathing through the eyes of a close-knit community of women. Gathered in a sweatbox in the forest, the women open up about their most hidden secrets, desires and traumatic memories, while the boundaries of body and soul are blurred before our eyes.
This hypnotic documentary premiered at the Sundance Film Festival 2023, where it won the Best Director Award in the World Cinema section.

Bem Cinema
In January 2016, the 108-year-old Bem Cinema will reopen its doors to the public, in a new way never seen before in Hungary: as a cinema of cult and classic films (no harm!), or as the educated French say (if you know your English): as a "repertory cinema".
