Steaming is a British drama film directed by Joseph Losey, released in 1985, the year after his death. The last film that Losey directed, it was adapted by Nell Dunn and Patricia Losey from Dunn's play of the same name. The film was screened out of competition at the 1985 Cannes Film Festival. The story is about the women who meet regularly in a Turkish bath and decide to fight its closure. The cast was headed by Vanessa Redgrave, Sarah Miles and Diana Dors. It was the last film appearance by Dors, who died in 1984.The film has no overall plot and is a series of conversations between the women involved. The unifying issue is the announcement that the baths are to be closed to build a leisure centre.
