False Positive asks how much of ourselves we owe to the people we love.

​

Henri is a closeted trans man, struggling with whether or not to actualise his true gender. Meanwhile, his mother is diagnosed with cancer and intends to refuse treatment. Mother and son both carry something inside which demands a decision: act for oneself or for those we love? This choice becomes ever more complicated for Henri as his boss attempts to end Henri's LGBT+ teaching initiative and his marriage reaches breaking point over his husband’s desire for children. 

 

And then Henri meets Blue, a woman who believes he was born male. And, as Henri finds himself falling in love, it suddenly becomes impossible to keep denying who he really is.
