In this longitudinal observation, director and social anthropologist Soňa G. Lutherová presents an intimate portrait of a family in which one of the parents is transitioning.

A creative writer and a psychiatrist move to Sweden from the Czech Republic to raise their young family, but adjusting to their new lives is made more complex as one begins the process of gender transition.

A HAPPY MAN presents an intimate story of a transgender man and his family, inviting viewers to understand and empathize with the unique challenges individuals and families face navigating pivotal moments in their lives.

"Tender...intimate...a surprisingly calm take on transition." - Marta Balaga, Cineuropa

"The deep-rooted relationship between psychiatrist Ivan and Marvin, a graphic designer by day and writer of queer fiction by night, is the beating heart of Sona Lutherová's compassionate and gently watchable doc. How this couple and their children deal with that journey is a story both compassionate and uplifting." - Mark Adams, Business Doc Europe
