Abstract

This paper aims to evaluate film society as a didactic instrument of human rights education in an undergraduate course in International Relations in Brazil. Based on a case study carried out at the Federal University of Rio Grande (FURG), film society is taken as a very efficient way of arousing students' interest in human rights when properly planned, especially in a traditionally elitist career focused on issues such as international trade and negotiation. On the one hand, film exhibition captures attention of students and induces an exercise of alterity. Therefore, it is a useful activity to deal with the complexity of human rights. In addition, debates and discussions held after films exhibitions proved to be a privileged space, both to consolidate the importance of theme and also to encourage the reading of indicated bibliography.
