Just because everyone is on their way to A-Camp does not mean that there aren’t still adorable things to talk about on the Internet.  Similarly, just because I have to turn in my Senior Thesis on Monday does not mean I should be working on that instead of talking about adorable things on the Internet.

That said, in 2010, Brazilian filmmaker Daniel Ribeiro — who was also responsible for the award-winning short Café com Leite — made this heartwarming film about a boy who starts to feel feelings about his new classmate, Gabriel.  My very own classmate William showed this to me yesterday and it made me feel feelings too.  I do not speak Portuguese, but the title Eu Não Quero Voltar Sozinho roughly translates to “I Don’t Want to Go Back Alone.”

This film is not about Lesbians, but it is about Love.  And Lesbians love Love. (Not to mention a Laundry List of other things that start with the Letter “L”).

(Pro tip: unless you speak Portuguese, it may help to turn on the English subtitles!)

I swear I’m only crying because I’m behind on my thesis.  What’s your excuse?
