I Don't Want to Go Back Alone

"I Don't Want to Go Back Alone" — watch online on iFILM, a 17-minute Brazilian drama (2011) directed by Daniel Ribeiro.

Blind teenager Leo has one constant in his life: his best friend Giovana. Then Gabriel transfers into their class and starts walking Leo home, helping with homework, showing up every day without being asked. The routine shifts into something harder to name. Leo has never had to sort out feelings like these, and isn't certain they'll be returned. Ribeiro fits more emotional precision into seventeen minutes than most features manage at feature length. Watch "I Don't Want to Go Back Alone" (2011) on iFILM.
