The way he looks gay movie

Director: Daniel Ribeiro. Writer: Daniel Ribeiro. Leonardo and Giovana are best friends. Like all teenagers they yearn for more independence and, being blind, Leonardo even more so. Gabriel, the new boy at school, becomes fast friends with them both, but ultimately three becomes a crowd.

Told from a unique perspective, The Way He Looks is a universal story of first love that redefined the genre and captured the adoration of cinema audiences the world over. More than that, how does a person that has never seen a man or woman defines their sexual orientation?

Both blindness and homosexuality are still taboos and objects of prejudice in society. The movie is about a teenager boy discovering his sexuality but it does not focus on his sexual orientation. No doubt Leonardo being gay is a major aspect, but less important than experiencing his first love, his first desires and all new experiences brought by adolescence.
