Way He Looks, The
Strand ReleasingSet against the music of Belle and Sebastian, Daniel Ribeiro's coming of age tale, The Way He Looks is a fun and tender story about friendship and the complications of young love. Leo (Ghilherme Lobo) is a blind teenager who's fed up with his overprotective mother and the bullies at school. Looking to assert his independence, he decides to study abroad to the dismay of his best friend, Giovana (Tess Amorim). When Gabriel (Fabio Audi), the new kid in town, teams with Leo on a school project, new feelings blossom in him that make him reconsider his plans. Meanwhile, Giovana grows jealous of this new found companionship as tensions mount between her and Leo.
