Currently screening

We are excited to share our Film of the Month, Colliding Forces – Mothers in Ballet and Beyond, a moving and beautifully crafted documentary that has already received critical acclaim on the international festival circuit.

This exclusive screening and Q&A are brought to our members as part of FFC’s ongoing commitment to showcasing powerful, thought-provoking films that highlight underrepresented voices and lived experiences.

Colliding Forces follows five professional ballet dancers from around the world as they navigate the complex intersection of motherhood and high-performance careers in dance. Through raw honesty and personal insight, the film offers a rare window into the emotional and physical challenges of balancing identity, artistry, and parenthood.

Eliza Schroeder is a German-born filmmaker who has been working in the UK for over a decade. Her debut feature film, Love Sarah, starred Celia Imrie, Rupert Penry-Jones, and Bill Paterson, and sold to over 53 countries for theatrical release.

Exclusive Members Club Q&A:
On Wednesday, June 18th at 7 PM BST, FFC Members Club will have the unique opportunity to join an intimate Q&A with Eliza Schroeder. She’ll share behind-the-scenes reflections, personal inspirations, and the challenges and triumphs of bringing these stories to life.

Colliding Forces is FFC’s film of choice this month because it amplifies the often unheard voices of women balancing the dual demands of passion and parenthood. It’s a celebration of resilience and a call to redefine what strength and success look like.

At the FFC, we select films that not only move us—but move us forward.
We can’t wait for our members to experience this documentary and join a rich, meaningful conversation with its director.
