"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

I am an closeted transgender boy. A little boy once called me he/him pronouns; “He’s your best friend!” I couldn’t be happier, hopefully these kids last and they understand when they are older what transgender is.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Those breaths in that you see when she sees herself.... Those are so real. The first time I had a moment like that is when I started binding... Making me cry up in here...

I’m a trans girl and I went through the same thing with my family and friends. They thought I was a gay but I told them I’m a girl trapped in a boy’s body. They eventually accepted me and I was so overjoyed, except my dad. He doesn’t talk to me and will not accept me as his daughter. But my mom and brother support me 100%. I live full-time as a woman and currently on HRT.

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

She was just so beautiful! And I love how one simple sentence made her day and that is so accurate to how it can feel when one random person gets your gender right! Great Job this was amazing!

When she smiled at the end it was priceless 😍😍

Holy crap the realism of this hit me hard

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

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.

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'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

-Why is that lady crying? Just beautiful... Nobody that has been through transgender issues won't understand.

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 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

Dad stands to the top of the stairs the whole time during the confession.in real life an upset father would've been all up in the sons face in panic.disbelief.anger.disappointed. he'd of showed deep emotion.physically.

My immediate reaction: Damn she's tall!

Cigarette daydreams,, love the music choices🤙🏽

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

"i don't really believe in that transexual" oops sorry my fist slipped

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.

As someone who is transgender mtf this film really speaks the truth of the matter that it really hurts when people people call you gay even though your transgender mtf

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

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.

Holy crap she's so brave. I could never do this. As an mtf, I understand her feelings, and it takes so much for me to even buy feminine clothes, let alone go out in public while wearing them.

I have the same coexist flag in my room and I use the same concealer.

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.

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

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

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

the name ophelia sounds so nice and is a really beautiful name

YoU nEeD hElP!! That was my parents reaction when I came out

I feel so bad for her 😭😭♥️♥️💕

If you're looking for MTF short films I recommend "The real thing"

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

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

this was good but like aint nobody was nice?? homegirl deserves better riip

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

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. 😊

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.

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

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

Every transgender person's nightmare and far to real. I am so lucky my parents were understanding. Still, I lost friends. I lost jobs. I lost a piece of my soul and walk this Earth like a zombie, desperate for what I can no longer have, waiting for what may never come: my turn to live the dream.

OMG Ophelia you are so PRETTY!

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

Gente! Apaixonado pela iniciativa desse rapaz! Se todos fossem assim e não deixasse o preconceito sufocar você! Meus Parabéns!

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

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. 💕💕

this story so beautyful any conversation and acting so good

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.

but like damn. she’s tall.

way to make a guy cry. beautifully made💞

Great work, hope to watch your next work

@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.

I relate to the dysphoria but in an opposite way

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

Great job. I love the film. 😊👍

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!

Great story-telling !

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

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

Excellent! Brava!

she is so brave. when I grow up, I wanna be brave like Ofelia

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Gorgeous💘💘💘

I’m a young trans girl I haven’t come out yet does anyone have any tips on coming out

You look beautiful!!!! I'm not sure on that name though, but 100% support.

her gender euphoria while looking herself in the mirror, with that beautiful dress, thrilled me so much

All trans people are valid and deserve to be loved and appreciated, me being one of them I can understand what this is like. My mom just about kicked me out of the house after I cut my hair

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

You can see the recorder in the car window

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

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

🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 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

I WISH I WAS THERE.

If I was the dad I’d still be very confused and ask many questions but end up hugging her and telling her she looks beautiful, not that she needs help w t f

When he did the thing to his chest I felt tgat for some reason that made me wanna cry because ive been that young man before....im on my.gender journey rn im nonbinary. Idk if thats the best fit but thats part of the journey

You look great Liam xxxx

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. 🙄

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

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

I think she looks beautiful
