Eddie Redmayne portrays the artist and transgender pioneer Lili Elbe in “The Danish Girl.” A young soccer player gets her mojo back in “The Kicks,” adapted from books by the Olympic gold medalist Alex Morgan. And “The Day Before” ventures inside the fashion atelier of Sonia Rykiel, who died on Thursday.

What’s on TV

THE DANISH GIRL (2015) 9 p.m. on HBO. Eddie Redmayne plays Einar Wegener and Alicia Vikander is his wife, Gerda, perfectly matched painters living in mutual devotion in bohemian 1926 Copenhagen. But what begins as a game — Einar’s occasional foray into wearing women’s clothing and then the acquisition of a female persona, Lili — triggers an existential transformation. Realizing the truth about himself, he sets out to physically alter reality. Lili’s “bravery makes this film a welcome tribute to a heroic forerunner of the current movement for transgender rights,” A. O. Scott wrote in The New York Times of Tom Hooper’s fact-based drama. Lili Elbe was one of the first people to attempt sex-reassignment surgery. And Ms. Vikander, who won as Oscar as Gerda, “acts from the inside out, with an openness and spontaneity that is especially rare in movies like this one.”

HUMAN RESOURCES 7:30 p.m. on Pivot. This kooky workplace reality series follows Tom Szaky, the founder and chief executive of TerraCycle, a recycling company in Trenton, and his army of thinkers and doers whose mission is to eliminate waste — all of it. In Season 3, they take on condoms and toiletries.

STOSSEL: LIBERTARIAN TOWN HALL 9 p.m. on Fox Business. John Stossel interviews Gary Johnson, the Libertarian presidential candidate, and his running mate, William F. Weld, about their party’s platform as well as economic, social and defense issues.

What’s Streaming

THE KICKS on Amazon. The soccer player Alex Morgan, most recently seen at the Rio Olympics, wrote the books spun into this new live-action children’s series. Sixx Orange plays Devin Burke, a soccer star until her family moved to California, where her new team, the Kicks, is on a losing streak — and she begins to think she is too. But not for long, once she regains her confidence after losing her lucky headband, copes with an injury and leads a match against the boys’ team.
