I don’t want to go back alone
Eu não quero voltar sozinho… Leonardo, a 15 year-old blind teenager, and Giovana are best friends. Going through adolescence together, she is starting to develop feelings for him but tries not to show it. Leonardo, on the other hand, doesn’t feel the same. When another boy, Gabriel, arrives in school, he immediately becomes friends with them. Leonardo, who was born blind, starts to discover new feelings towards Gabriel, understanding, for the first time, what is like to fall in love.

That was absolutely darling. I knew a blind boy in middle school and was smitten with him. He was a little bit older than me, and I liked him because he just seemed so cool about everything. We didn’t have the chance to become anything more than just acquaintances, since he transferred to another school. This brought back my memories of him and how me made me feel inside. Thanks for the smile.

This short was absolutely brilliant, poignant….I too had a crush on a blind boy in Jr High. I was too immature and too critical. I forced myself to get turned off by his cloudy eyes, the rocking he did while sitting and that damned noise from the braille typewriter. Those were just excuses of course, because I lacked the courage to explore the possibilities.

Amei o curta, muito lindo. Cheguei a sentir as borboletas no estômago que o personagem deve ter sentido quando ele falou para a guria que tava apaixonado.
E depois quando ele fala para o Gabriel pensando que esta falando com a Gi fiquei com medo da reação que ele pode-se ter, apesar de ele aparentar já gostar do Léo. Mas quando ele vem e beija, bá foi muito tri.
O sorriso no final quando ele entende o que aconteceu fechou com chave de ouro.
Sorry for the long post in portuguese, just thought it was a better way to put how I felt touched by this beautiful short movie. Also I wanted in some how express that I am Brazilian.

OH, Leo’s moment of sweet realization… When the light goes on and he smiles and has to sit down! Do you remember a moment in your young life like that? I do! And I had to find more subtle ways to touch than he. We all had to do our little dances… our own little versions of “blind man’s bluff” to test the waters of our secret loves.
Now, I’m going back to watch this gem again.

At 06:48, in Leo’s room when Leo takes off his shirt and Gabriel looks away… then realizes, “Oh, I can stare!” And, he does… and he enjoys what he sees. So did I.
