BiographyDaniel Ribeiro (born May 20, 1982) is a Brazilian film director known for his works You, Me and Him (Portuguese: Cafe com Leite, 2007) and I Don't Want To Go Back Alone (Portuguese: Eu Não Quero Voltar Sozinho, 2010), was later made into the full-length feature The Way He Looks (Portuguese: Hoje Eu Quero Voltar Sozinho) in 2014.

In 2007 Ribeiro won an award for You, Me and Him, while the film itself has received many awards including the Crystal Bear for best short film at the 2008 Berlin International Film Festival. The film is about a man named Danilo who is getting ready to move in with his boyfriend Marcos when his parents die unexpectedly and he suddenly gains custody of his 10-year-old brother Lucas.

I Don't Want To Go Back Alone is about a blind boy, Leonardo, and his best friend Giovana who helps guide him home. When a third friend, Gabriel, comes into the picture, Leonardo begins to realize his feelings for him. The full-length version The Way He Looks contains more detail and changes the plot slightly, but features the same concepts as the short. In 2011 I Don't Want To Go Back Alone won the Iris Prize. The Way He Looks won two awards at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival, the FIPRESCI Prize for best feature film in the Panorama section, and the Teddy Award for best LGBT-themed feature.
