In a world that rewards performance, we're interested in something else. Real people. Real life.
We make original documentaries, partner with organisations to tell authentic human stories, and create characterful films that preserve family histories.
Because the more we recognise ourselves in strangers, the harder it becomes to judge them.

Meet the founder
Hi, I'm Celia.
I’ve always been fascinated by people - not the polished versions we present to the world, but the relationships, contradictions and everyday moments that reveal who we really are.
For more than 25 years, that curiosity has taken me from boardrooms to war zones, archaeological digs to frozen wonderlands. I’ve made films for Netflix, the BBC, Channel 4 and Discovery, and worked with organisations including Porsche, HSBC, Unicef, and Save the Children. Alongside filmmaking, I’ve founded and grown several media businesses. Relatively Speaking brings all of that experience together.
I also share what I’ve learned with other filmmakers through the Story Lab: practical guides and the occasional one-to-one mentoring session.
