Paul Lyndsay (Scott Williams) just wants to give his children what he never had, and in the case of only son Charlie (Harry Gilby) that’s a career in football to spare him a future wasted toiling in factories. So when a talent scout approaches Charlie after a game with a lucrative contract his father can’t understand why the boy isn’t more excited about it. Charlie’s dissatisfaction, however, is rooted in gender dysphoria: she identifies as female, and after years of denial is finding it difficult to hide her true feelings any longer. As Charlie begins to transition with the support of her mother (Patricia Potter) and sister (Elinor Machen-Fortune), Paul struggles to let go of his son.
Developed from their 2011 short film Something Blue, director Rebekah Fortune and writer Peter Machen reunite for Just Charlie, a Midlands-set meditation on gender, identity and acceptance...
