AMONG CUBES, PATHS AND TREES: A DISCUSSION ABOUT LIFE RENOVATION

In this article, which recurred to sources of biographical and documentary character, we present three short films in order to discuss human condition, taking as a theoretical reference Edgar Morin's complex thought. Based upon the premise that the films, being short or long films, convey a formative potential as far as they mobilize aesthetic sensibility by means of the projection of the characters and of the identification with them, by putting them in sintony with them The films make various subject-matters emerge and instigate a new comprehension and up till ruptures with crystallized ideas. We hope that this work can bring contributions to the teacher's and professor's activity within the secondary education classroom and within the university classroom and develop formative activities which cultivate a renovation of ideas, other views and life perspectives in the pupils and students.
