This is the reason for using the humanities in medical education. Cinema goes well with young students' universe, which is one immersed in a culture of images and emotions. When used with a method that is becoming more and more consistent -clips of scenes, simultaneous comments by the facilitator and discussion groups - cinema emergesas an attractive alternative for teaching ethics. It facilitates learning by encouraging students to contemplate and reflect, which is the real basis for philosophical exercise of the medical profession.
