"Posture" | Short Film 

You said it was a short film

Oh finally, an MtF film. (Nothing against FtM, but it overpopulates MtF by far.)

The moment she smiled after changing her clothes and putting on the wig, that really struck a chord with me even though I’m FTM and I could never understand the situation from the opposite perspective, I’m happy for her

When she said "Why is that lady crying?" My heart melted. I wish someone would treat me this way. I'm a trans male btw.

She's beautiful, and no one should tell her different! She is now my child

Any parent that would say "just get out" is cruel and selfish. Children with these issues need love and support. My children would have it unconditionally.

I'm ftm but still I can feel her so much... That dysphoria while taking her shirt off...

To all trans women: You are beautiful, amazing, brave ladies who deserve all the love and support in the world. You are real women and you do have people that support you I promise ❤

if I can have her masculine body, she can have my feminine body.

ophelia: it makes me feel beautiful... stephanie: *wHaT tHe FuCk nOaH*

people who are not harming other people should be allowed to live their lives.

Holy crap the realism of this hit me hard

I hate when people say "You're putting pressure on ME!" Like I'm being MYSELF and you take that as a punishment for YOURSELF!? That is so SELFISH

That conversation... That she had with her dad when she was first discovered..... That was... So similar to the conversations I have with my stepmother.. Only, with her, she tends to like to bring up all the feminine things I liked as a child and how I'm too young and that people my age always end up making mistakes... Evidently she still thinks that it'll all be a phase or something and doesn't realize I don't LIKE getting screamed at and that I don't LIKE sobbing and that this isn't to be a special snowflake or whatever... She got angry at my teachers and threatened to pull me out of school because they called me by my preferred name and pronouns... Also came within seconds away of returning a binder I just got... First binder I ever got.. I wish there were special words one can say that could just.. Let people like that instantly understand. Like "abracadabra" and it makes sense to them.. *sigh* (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ fighting! Just got to keep fighting until we're allowed to be our own people...

I am HERE for a MTF film. Representation is so important and I really treasure this!! It gets better guys gals and pals. It seriously will. Remember to keep pushing forward and little changes will find their way. One day you’ll look in the mirror and see yourself as who you are ❤️

I'll help her... though we are getting her a different wig, straight cut bangs dont do ophelia justice

I honestly love this short film I feel so close to it and it makes me want to cry tears of joy because you guys should the struggles of being a trans from male to female. Thank you for showing the struggles that some of us have to go through and the way it is

Cigarette daydreams,, love the music choices🤙🏽

When she was putting on that dress and make up it made me smile and idk why.

If you're FTM, you're valid. If you're MTF, you're valid. If you're non-binary, genderqueer, genderfluid or agender, you're valid. Whatever you are, you're valid!

Who else was On the edge of their bed because you thought he was gonna cut himself with the razor

“Posture” is short on filmmaking skill, but oversupplied in its sincere wish to communicate something of the dilemma faced by those who realise they are living their lives in the body of the opposite sex and are surrounded by family & friends unsympathetic or not understanding. Noah/Ophelia, played by writer/director Liam English, is haltingly inarticulate as the lead character, but manages to express this angst most powerfully by his very tall and lean frame, which is a remarkable visual in itself.

It makes me happy to see all of the comments on this video being so positive towards transgender people. I have hope for the future.

It’s really weird how they just ignore the beautiful music that plays randomly

i remember this! my sister lyric got me to be the little girl at the end! i was in the 2nd grade LMAOO!!! i was going back to this because i didn’t understand anything about the film when i was younger. but now, this film explains and shows how trans women (and trans men too) are beautiful and amazing

Honestly, she's really pretty ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is tough to watch. I am a trans people supporter. You guys are the bravest humans to stand for what you really are and withstand the rest of us, our staring, prejudices and the likes.

my girlfriend also thought i was gay, we were living together already... so I wasn't brave and pushed my feelings down for 8 years... she ended up cheating on me, I had serious issues with drugs and alcohol... I'm almost 2 months clean and finally coming to terms with myself... I am 30

Stephanie: WTF NOAH!!!! Me: WTF STEPHANIE, SHUT THE F UP.... OMG!!!!!!! *runs around screaming* WTF!!

The way Ophelia is a trans female but still loved Steph is so cute! My friend is lesbian but her girlfriend came out as trans so now my friend is technically pans. 😊

“I DONT WANT YOU TO EXPLAIN!” “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” 😑😑😑

Well done, and the final scene with the little girl was so touching. I knew I recognized Colonie Center in it at the beginning.

There was some hate in the comment section. Only a few. We scared em away. But for the most part, it was really positive. Our world is advancing, but not quick enough I fear

I feel so bad for her 😭😭♥️♥️💕

Ophelia is the most prettiest being I have ever seen. I'm a trans gay male but love to watch these. beat of luck to all of u 😘😍

Bravo👏👏👏👊Powerful, poignant and beautifully brave;a person is whom they tell you they are.Love them for them,not you.Listen,don't just look.👌🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍💥❤💯KUDOS to EVERYONE involved👋🌱💚🌳✌Everybody needs love to grow; REAL love is nourishment for the soul,yours as well as theirs, without expectations or conditions. Love,light and strength to all those strong, beautiful souls, out there on this journey.

but like damn. she’s tall.

As a trans girl I loved the idea of this, specially because there’s not a lot of mtf trans short films, however, it could be slightly better done. I dont know, there’s a few things I would cut out to make it a little bit shorter. Maybe I’m just a bitch lol. 💕💕

She's still the same person, just with a different name, different pronouns, and different genitals. That's all that's changed. I should know... I'm a boy. Nothing has changed at all about me except for my name, pronouns, and genitals (eventually). That's it. Being Trans isn't as easy as 1, 2, 3. It's a process to get used to, a process that takes time. Some know really fast, others don't. It's not anyone's fault, it's just how you are and you can't change that just because someone doesn't like it. All she needs is support, love, and care. Just like any other person in the trans community. This is my thoughts. If you don't like them, then skip them and don't let it ruin your day. Just go on and hate on someone else. But she is beautiful, and so is every other trans person.

I've been looking for an mtf film for so long thank you 😭

She's so pretty oml. Her makeup is great and I love the outfit, but brush out the wig hun!

way to make a guy cry. beautifully made💞

@Liam English: Thank you very much for this short film. I was really touched and I hope Ophelia is fine. @to all the people: You are valid. You are loved. You wanna get the support you need. Maybe you just have not met your person(s) yet. Please do not give up on yourself and all this dreams that you are carring in your heart.

Loved it so much! Lol when I saw her about to look in the mirror my brain went, "veronica"

I'm wishing her all the best I know everything will goes well for her with her transition, I'm sending hugs and love her way 🤗🤗🤗💗💗💗🌈🏳️‍🌈🌠☮️,and this is coming from another Trans woman

the store when closeted: this place is the most shitty ever.. the store when you're out: this is the best store EVEEEER!!

To every trans person you are amazing,loved,and accepted. Don’t let hate stop you.❤

This is nothing short of incredible, I'm in tears, I want to give her a hug omg

The happiest moments of my life were after I turned 15 and said my thick auburn hair was too hot so I chopped it short, and little kids would throw tantrums yelling at their parents and saying I was a boy. While all of the adults in the room were arguing with the child I was just trying not to smile, for once feeling like I was seen. I am now 19 and identify as agender, and I still feel a little lighter when a kid sees my short hair and calls me a boy.

i can so identify the lead character its almost my life story

Gorgeous💘💘💘

This Short Film Just talks about me 25 years ago - I Know 100% what Noah feels and I hope for Her getting a Good Life

Well that made me cry! 40 years of hidden feelings summed up in a few minutes of film. Well done for making a powerful short story.

Beautiful film, I love it! Congratulations!🎊👏 I was crying in any part. ❤️❤️😇👏

Her: I'm a girl Me: OMG here we comes the war of a dad and a daughter

Watching her put her makeup on and smile was SOOOO cute ugh

I think she looks beautiful

Don’t you just LOVE it when the parents think everything their child does during a transition is a way to get back at their parental unit. 🙄

this story so beautyful any conversation and acting so good

I love this and all but sis, that wig ain’t right. Those bangs are-

10:05 why I felt the fear when She was caught by her dad? 🙈

It's amazing how much emotion they can portray with so few words.

When she came out to her dad that's the same conversation I had with my mom I'm transgender ftm my preferred name is Justin I just hope one day my mom will understand

LIAM ENGLISH this is the BEST clip i ever seen ,the comversation the acting ,your story touching my heart ,thank a lot and support

🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 nella vita bisogna essere liberi di essere noi stessi. Non è un tabù ma la libertà di ognuno di noi di esprimersi la nostra dignità

She is my tall queen 👑... You can slayy all day. Love you sis

Live your Truth ans Love yourself

Can i just hug her

when she put on that wig, she looked so beautiful :`)))

"When the Hell did I lose my son?" Never. You never had one to begin with.

I will say that expecting people especially people like parents to just accept it off the batt and chance how they treat you and address you instantaneously is kind of unrealistic. What I do not get and can not get is people acting like it is all about them. It is not I'm sorry but it is not about them. Us being who we are causes you pain then so be it. If things take time then fine but don't treat us like we are mentally ill, don't treat us like freaks, don't treat us like we are doing something wrong. We do need help yes. We need support, we need people to treat us like we are human and not the monster under the bed. The ending though really got me. It's the little things, just a tiny thing like that makes all the difference in the world. Just treating us like us can help fix a life time of pain and hurt. I personally have been very lucky. I came out in my early 30's and almost everyone has been lovely and supportive, my friends my partner, my workplace. My parents are far from it and have decided to go no contact, which really hurts though.

When I came out my my mom was like "ArE YoU SuRe YoUrE nOt GaY"

Great job. I love the film. 😊👍

when the dad showed up i legit got scared :( my mom AND dad would both be like that... I need to move out

i m also same ...from childhood i crossdress and love that .. people cant understand us...girls wear jeans shirts ...then why not we wear lingerie and short dress like them ..look i love girls but i want to be attractive like them ..make up and all ...but love to girls always....

Well, girl, it's not easy being yourself. But I understand you, Ophelia. I am the same. Karolina Sandra Paulina Marit Giering.

She is gorgeous 😍

This video gave me hella secondhand dysphoria because it hit too hard lol smh 🤦🏼‍♀️

Makeup on fleak periodt.

Great story-telling !

When she looked in the mirror after putting the dress on I related to it because it was the same way I felt after I put on my first binder it’s a great feeling

I wasn't that brave when I came out. I did it all through text... but damn, I can still relate to this.

At the start the dress still looks amazing

also she's a model

Even tho the acting isnt the best this still hit me on a personal level as a trans girl

how does she look better than me with makeup literally after the first time doing it 😭✋

He's so brave, but They all need help and support. Great short film.

23 minutes isn't really short these days.

This dad is killing me

Great work, hope to watch your next work

did anyone else get severe chest disphoria from this. great for her but still

please call me OPHELIA ....................so beautyful please make more clip about LGBT

Girl you is beautiful

It’s always the little things like when people say mam or the girl over there or when they call me and my friends all ladies it’s just those things that make you feel happy and bubbly inside it’s the things that make you happy that you overcame all the hate just for this to be happy to be a woman

You look great Liam xxxx

Technically she is gay. She's a woman who likes women. Hasn't picked the best girlfriend though jeez.

Wow.. this really hit me hard... that’s exactly how my parents reacted...

I still don’t get the name of the short film🤔

That was touching. Thank you.
