François.e

Confirmed2026-07-08Post-production

François, a 50-year-old screenwriter whose career is on the decline, cynically ticks the "transgender" box to secure funding for his latest TV series project. When, against all odds, his plan works and his project is accepted, he finds himself having to portray… Françoise, an author beginning her transition. Unable to fulfill the required role, he must team up with Sarah, a real trans writer. As Françoise, François finally achieves success. He fills his bank account and reconnects with his teenage daughter… but as his deception continues, the price to pay proves higher than expected: his truest bonds are forged around his new identity. Françoise liberates him as much as she imprisons him.

François.e is a French comedy-drama arriving July 8, 2026, about a struggling 50-year-old screenwriter who checks the transgender box to land TV funding, only to find himself forced to live as his character Françoise when the project unexpectedly gets greenlit. The film explores identity, deception, and unexpected liberation as François navigates the consequences of his scheme alongside a real trans writer.
