trans guys in movies?

I've kind of been searching online to see if I can find any movies about trans guys, but the only one I've really found is boy's don't cry (just reading the wiki page on Brandon Teena made me cry, I don't think I could stomach the movie) so I was wondering if anyone could recommend me any?

These are not all movies, some are documentaries, some are series:
Romeos (German)
The Fosters
Trans Generation
Southern Comfort
Pick Up the Mic

Tomboy is about a kid who you would class as being trans if they carried on the way they did in the film. It doesn't explicitly say they're trans though, and is in French.

I second romeos. I loved that movie so much.

I thought of the kid in Tomboy as trans as well. The writer refused to say when asked directly. I HATED the ending, very upsetting but the movie is great up til then.

In Ma Vie en Rose the main character (transgirl) meets a transboy

Tomboy ended on a stressful note (not like Boys Don't Cry stressful, tho) but it was visually stunning, and, I thought, a very good film. Definitely resonated with me.
