We present the complete superconducting upper critical field (H _c2) - temperature (T) diagram of FeTeS films measured at three crystalline orientations (H ∥ c, 45^° and ab). We find that H_c2 is almost isotropic in magnetic field orientation with μ₀H_c2 (T = 0) ∼ 30 T and a transition temperature of T_c ∼ 7 K. A small but clear H_c2 angular anisotropy is observed, with a crossover around T = 0.7T_c, from H_c2 (∥ c) < H_c2 (∥ ab) for T > 0.7T_c to H _c2 (∥ c) > H_c2 (∥ ab) for T < 0.7T _c. This change in the anisotropy is similar to that observed in FeTeS and FeTeSe single crystals but occurs at a higher T/T_c for our film. We analyze the H_c2 (T) in terms of pair-breaking mechanisms and two-band superconductor theory. Understanding the inversion of H_c2 opens the possibility to adjust the effective anisotropy of superconductors for different applications.
