Johan has been living a carefree life. Bars, parties, Grindr hookups, and steamy bathhouse encounters. But when William, a transgender man, enters his world, everything shifts. Sauna explores the transformative power of love, revealing both its tenderness and its madness. Through Johan and William’s relationship, director Mathias Broe crafts an intimate and raw portrayal of contemporary Queer romance, navigating the complexities of desire, identity, and community. With striking visuals and an unflinching gaze, Sauna immerses us in a world where passion and vulnerability collide.
