GreenBoats Sauna
Norway

Documentary, Independent, Travel, 06-Dec-2021
GreenBoats was one of Oslo's most distinctive public saunas — a fleet of all-electric sauna boats on the fjord, quiet, clean, and entirely without the noise of a combustion engine. Two regular visitors return for a final time.
The boats are permanently closed now. This film is what remains: a record of what the place was, how it felt, and why the people who knew it are still talking about it.
Oslo's fjord sauna culture continues — we cover that too. But GreenBoats was its own thing, and it deserved a proper goodbye.
Fortunately, Oslo Fjord is close by! (We feature Oslo’s Fjord Sauna too).
